Microsoft could have prevented Chinese cloud email hack, US cyber report says

A report by the US Cyber Safety Review Board has found that Microsoft's failure to prioritize enterprise security investments and rigorous risk management contributed to Chinese hackers breaching US government emails through its Microsoft Exchange Online software. The incident affected over 500 people, including US government employees working on national security. The report calls for an overhaul of Microsoft's security culture, highlighting the need to prevent such intrusions. This comes as Microsoft faces ongoing attacks from Russian state-sponsored hackers, with the same group behind the SolarWinds attack spying on executive email inboxes and accessing the company's source code repositories and internal systems.
