The Crisis at Microsoft - A Secure Data Copy Is Worth Its Weight in Gold!

The true scope of the security breach at Microsoft remains a total enigma. Microsoft is playing its cards close to its chest, with impacted government bodies and organisations largely choosing to remain tight-lipped. The scale of the harm caused remains unknown to all.

What’s particularly surprising is that it wasn't Microsoft that detected the hack, but an Azure customer using a paid tool. Even though said tool is due to become complimentary, shouldn’t Microsoft have picked up on something being amiss? How can clients rest easy, uncertain if more master keys might have been compromised? Microsoft's lack of communication and poor handling only intensify the situation. That's what c't magazine addresses in their fittingly named article, “When Clouds Burst”, citing sources from heise.
