Microsoft will start blocking and isolating certain versions of compromised SolarWinds app responsible for part of high-profile cyberattack.
Microsoft has announced that will start blocking and isolating certain versions of SolarWinds, the app that was compromised as part of a high-profile cyberattack earlier this week. The decision should provide businesses with an additional layer of protection while they put more long-term patch management solutions in place. “Starting on Wednesday, December 16 at 8:00 AM PST, Microsoft Defender Antivirus will begin blocking the known malicious SolarWinds binaries,” a Microsoft security blog explained.
