https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_United_States_federal_gov... On December 8, 2020, the cybersecurity firm FireEye announced that red team tools had been stolen from it by what it believed to be a state-sponsored attacker.[106][107][108] FireEye was believed to be a target of the SVR, Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service.[27][109] FireEye says that it discovered the SolarWinds supply chain attack in the course of investigating FireEye's own breach and tool theft.[110][111] After discovering that attack, FireEye reported it to the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), a federal agency responsible for helping to defend the U.S. from cyberattacks.[1] The NSA is not known to have been aware of the attack before being notified by FireEye.[1] The NSA uses SolarWinds software itself.[1] |
