Precisely how the hacking group obtained the Microsoft account consumer key is “a matter of ongoing investigation,” the Big Tech company said in a blog post.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and Microsoft published new details about the hackers’ digital espionage that Microsoft previously said affected some 25 organizations, including government agencies.
Precisely how the hacking group obtained the Microsoft account consumer key is “a matter of ongoing investigation,” the Big Tech company said in a Friday blog post. “In past activity observed by Microsoft, Storm-0558 has primarily targeted U.S. and European diplomatic, economic, and legislative governing bodies, and individuals connected to Taiwan and Uyghur geopolitical interests,” Microsoft said. “Historically, this threat actor has displayed an interest in targeting media companies, think tanks, and telecommunications equipment and service providers.”
The Biden administration has said it is on top of the matter and teaming with Microsoft to respond. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said last week that the federal government discovered the problem “fairly rapidly” and were able to stop additional breaches.
