Topics discussed:
- Chinese intelligence hacked U.S. government emails in ‘significant’ breach
- Over 2 dozen European and U.S. agencies were targeted
- The hack is specifically Microsoft email accounts
- Not only government accounts, but personal ones “associated” with the agencies
- Affected unclassified systems
- Microsoft has since patched the issue, but this is why security is important. Namely, don’t put sensitive information into easily compromised systems such as emails
- Veeam to Integrate with the new Microsoft 365 Backup
- M365 Backup OOB just runs within the MS ecosystem.
- Introduce a new set of Backup APIs which vendors such as Veeam will be allowed to utilize.
- Theoretically this will enhance existing protection capabilities.
- No specifics yet, but maybe this will address issues VB365 has been plagued with over the years, such as constant API breakages and limitations like 1:1 Teams chats.
