US reprimands Microsoft for security failures that allowed Chinese hack: Federal report says ‘cascade of errors’ by tech giant let Chinese operators break into ...
theguardian.com/technology/2024/apr/03/microsoft-errors-security-chinese-hack
Quick Glance: US government faults Microsoft for errors in Chinese hacker attack
- A US government review found that Microsoft committed a series of avoidable errors that allowed Chinese hackers to access the tech giant's network last year and later breach the email accounts of senior US officials.
- Microsoft was specifically criticized for not adequately protecting a sensitive cryptographic key, enabling hackers to remotely log into their targets' Outlook accounts by forging credentials.
- The hack resulted in Chinese operatives gaining access to the unclassified email accounts of senior US diplomats, including US Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns and US Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo.
- Microsoft announced plans to enhance its security practices for software development and user protection following the alleged Chinese hacking incident and scrutiny of its security practices by US lawmakers.
Here's Why Microsoft Is Separating Teams From the Rest of the Office Suite: Microsoft could be getting ahead of antitrust fines by unbundling Teams from the ...
entrepreneur.com/business-news/microsoft-is-separating-teams-from-the-rest-of-office-365/471997
Quick Glance: Microsoft splits up Teams and Office worldwide
- Microsoft is beginning to sell Teams and the other Microsoft 365 apps as separate products with separate prices for new commercial customers worldwide.
- The unbundling is a win for other team communication and video conferencing apps like Slack and Zoom, which have not benefited from the huge established user base of the Office apps.
- The separation follows an EU regulatory investigation that started in July 2023, and Microsoft may yet be fined.
- Currently, the changes only affect the Microsoft 365 plans for the Business, Enterprise, and Frontline versions of Microsoft 365.
