Microsoft SharePoint Security Meltdown: Over 400 Organizations Hit by Cyber Attacks
The Microsoft SharePoint attack has compromised over 400 organizations, with critical vulnerabilities exploited since mid-July. Even nuclear agencies weren’t spared! Microsoft patched the issues, but only after Eye Security’s early alarm. Meanwhile, Chinese cyberspies have been blamed, and Microsoft might still be searching for its ‘Oops’ button.
Hot Take:
Oh Microsoft, it seems your SharePoint servers have more holes than Swiss cheese. Who knew organizing projects and sharing files could lead to playing hide and seek with Chinese cyberspies? Maybe it’s time for a new game plan!
