As a result of on-premises exchange server vulnerabilities, businesses are being urged to check their servers have not been compromised before applying patches. The scale of the attack is large but the extent of damage is not fully known. It’s escalating daily, and these vulnerabilities have been open to multiple attacks for months.
The devastating results are due to the hack being undetectable until it is too late. If your business has already been hit, then patching will not resolve data already compromised and information accessed.
Additionally, Microsoft have advised information captured is being used by hackers in ransomware attacks involving payment demands and access to data, halting and impacting business operations.
These exchange vulnerabilities could cause a lot of damage to businesses, as hackers can impact productivity as your employees may be unable to work if your servers have been taken over by hackers. Employees may be unable to access important information if hackers are holding this ‘to ransom’.
