The Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) warned customers of the threat behind ongoing DoppelPaymer ransomware attacks and reminded them about misleading info on how it spreads.
"There is misleading information circulating about Microsoft Teams, along with references to RDP (BlueKeep), as ways in which this malware spreads," MSRC Director of Incident Response Simon Pope says.
"Our security research teams have investigated and found no evidence to support these claims. In our investigations we found that the malware relies on remote human operators using existing Domain Admin credentials to spread across an enterprise network."
