SANS Institute breach

 

A sign of the times indeed!

A well known U.S. company that focuses on information security and cybersecurity training experienced a security breach at the hands of one of their own employees.  Long story short, the user installed a malicious Office 365 add-in which triggered the mass forwarding of many emails spread out over 28,000 accounts.  Yikes!

SANS released a statement about the breach here.  Check it out for further details.
