China-state-aligned hackers used ARTEX, an AI-powered penetration-testing framework, to attempt access to more than 2,250 Microsoft 365 tenants following the ConnectWise Cloud Backup breach.
Summary
Microsoft attributed the attack to Storm-0940 and reported 2,900 sign-in attempts per minute, leaving security teams little time to investigate and block access.
This is a brief wire summary, the full story (linked below) has the complete details.
KazaSec's take
Incidents like this rarely start with the headline event itself, they usually trace back to an exposed remote-access endpoint, an unpatched perimeter system, or a credential phished weeks earlier. The organizations that recover fastest are the ones that tested their defenses and their incident response plan before they needed them.
