Microsoft slammed for a cascade of faults that leads to Storm-0558 cloud hack

The US Cyber Safety Review Board has now published its report on the hack of Microsoft Online Exchange in the summer of 2023 by the suspected Chinese group Storm-0558. The board's conclusion: Microsoft can't do security! And certainly not in its own cloud. A "cascade" of errors, committed by Microsoft or its employees, is responsible for the hack of the Microsoft Cloud and Microsoft Online Exchange accounts.

The Board of Inquiry recommends that Microsoft develop and make public a plan with specific timelines for fundamental, security-oriented reforms across the company and its product portfolio. Microsoft has cooperated fully with the Board's review, it says. US media outlets such as the Washington Post and AP have jumped on the issue and are picking Microsoft apart. In the USA, the first authorities and major customers have already started to turn away from Microsoft.
