Microsoft, Ransomware and SharePoint
Digest more
New estimates regarding the recently-exploited Microsoft SharePoint vulnerabilities now evaluate that as many as 400 organizations may have been targeted.
Microsoft Corp. said a Chinese hacking group is exploiting security vulnerabilities in the company’s SharePoint servers to deploy ransomware, following a cyberattack discovered last week that has affected hundreds of entities around the world.
Microsoft (MSFT) is trying to determine if a leak from its early alert system for cybersecurity companies created a window for Chinese hackers to attack its SharePoint service, according to Bloomberg.
