The US Department of Justice says that the Microsoft Office 365 email accounts of employees at 27 US Attorneys’ offices were breached by the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) during the SolarWinds global hacking spree.
“The APT is believed to have access to compromised accounts from approximately May 7 to December 27, 2020,” the DOJ said in a statement issued earlier today.
“The compromised data included all sent, received, and stored emails and attachments found within those accounts during that time,
“While other districts were impacted to a lesser degree, the APT group gained access to the O365 email accounts of at least 80 percent of employees working in the U.S. Attorneys’ offices located in the Eastern, Northern, Southern, and Western Districts of New York.” [emphasis ours]
