LONDON (Reuters) -Britain's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) said on Monday it had detected a "limited number" of UK-based victims in an ongoing hacking campaign that has affected servers using Microsoft's SharePoint system.
Microsoft on Saturday issued an alert about "active attacks" on SharePoint servers used within organisations. It said that SharePoint Online in Microsoft 365, which is in the cloud, was not hit by the exploit, also known as a "zero day".
