SolarWinds's Orion platform hacked

Η security vendor SolarWinds' "Orion" monitoring system was breached and is rumored to have been used in attacks against major US government agencies.

These attacks could be linked to an attack we reported last week που είχε σαν αποτέλεσμα την διαρροή κορυφαίων hacking εργαλείων της security FireEye.

A statement from Kevin Thompson, President and CEO of SolarWinds, stated that the company "has a potential vulnerability which is believed to be related to updates March and June 2020 in Orion monitoring products ”.

"We believe this vulnerability was exploited in a highly sophisticated, targeted and manual attack s (chain attack) from a state. We are working closely with FireEye, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the intelligence community and other law enforcement authorities to investigate these matters. So we are limited in what we can say at this time.”
