Earlier this year, Microsoft discovered that Russian government hackers were spying on accounts email records of some members of the senior management team. Now the company additionally reports that the attack also led to the theft of some source code. This ongoing attack is being carried out by the same group behind the SolarWinds attack.
“In recent weeks, we have seen evidence that Midnight Blizzard [Nobelium] is using information originally stolen from our corporate email systems to gain or attempt to gain unauthorized access,” – Microsoft explains. “This included access to some of the company's source code repositories and internal systems. To date, we have found no evidence that client systems hosted on a Microsoft server have been compromised.”
Microsoft does not specify which source code the Russian hackers gained access to. But the company says the Nobelium group (Microsoft calls it Midnight Blizzard) is continuing its attack and is now trying to use “the various types of secrets it has found” to try to further compromise the company's software and, potentially, its customers.
Microsoft has strengthened its security controls and monitoring and detection capabilities to protect its systems from this threat and help customers mitigate potential risks. However, the company is still investigating Nobelium's latest attacks on its systems.
