Microsoft claims Russian actors attempted to hack three midterm elections candidates

Jul, 19, 2023 Hi-network.com
Microsoft detected and helped the US government block Russian hacking attempts against at least three congressional candidates in 2018, Microsoft's corporate vice president for customer security and trust Tom Burt said at an Aspen Security Forum. The hackers sought to steal the credentials of candidates' staffers through phishing attacks which landed them at a fake Microsoft domain. According to Microsoft, the fake domains were registered by Fancy Bear or APT 28, a Russia-linked group of hackers. Microsoft took down the fake domain and worked with the government to ensure none of the staffers was infected by the attack.
