FBI takedown of Handala websites after Stryker mass-wipe
U.S. authorities seized two websites tied to Handala after the group claimed a March 11 attack that disrupted Stryker's global Microsoft environment. Analysis indicates harvested administrator credentials were likely used to abuse Microsoft Intune to wipe managed devices, halting order processing, manufacturing and shipping.
FBI, CISA warn on Microsoft Intune risks after Iran-linked cyberattack on Stryker
The attackers behind a recent attack on Stryker did not use malware, instead breaking into a legitimate Microsoft device management system called Intune and wiping the company’s data that way.
The FBI and the Justice Department took down two websites linked to the pro-Iranian hacktivist group Handala, which last week hacked medical tech giant Stryker.
