Looks like the domain used to control the malware infrastructure in the SolarWinds compromise is now controlled by Microsoft. They should soon have a good (if conservative) idea how many SW/Orion customers were hacked.

Making progress to modernize state government even during a pandemic. Great partnership and many thanks to @ConnDAS @CTDigitalS @SOTSMerrill @CTDECD @CTDOL @CTDRS @CTDCP @Advance_CT @GovNedLamont

@briankrebs Hahaha, I mean hands "on" bash shell...see how much help we need? Seriously, don't let anything hold you back. You all got this!

[Jeff Brown @packetsniff]

@briankrebs Not to be discouraging though! The reality is that CISOS can also use help with: communications, project management, even just administrative tasks. The best time to start in Infosec was 10 years ago. The next best time is RIGHT NOW. I don’t need everyone with hands bash shell.
