The Russian hackers behind the massive SolarWinds attack gained access to a limited subset of Malwarebytes’ internal company emails stored in Microsoft Office 365.
The Santa Clara, Calif.-based endpoint security vendor said it received information Dec. 15 from the Microsoft Security Response Center about suspicious activity from a third-party application in its Office 365 tenant, Malwarebytes CEO Marcin Kleczynski wrote in a blog post Tuesday. The suspicious activity was consistent with the tactics, techniques of procedures of the hacker behind the SolarWinds attack.
