Å nei! Norway's Stortinget struck by Microsoft Exchange malware

Norway's Parliament has joined the growing list of organisations hit by vulnerabilities in Microsoft's Exchange Server.


A press release confirmed that the Stortinget (the great assembly) had suffered at the hands of backdoor-installing miscreants and, worse, "we know that data has been extracted, but we do not yet have a full overview of the situation," according to director Marianne Andreassen.

"We have taken extensive action and cannot rule out that further action will be taken," she added, "the work is carried out in cooperation with the security authorities. The situation is unclear, and we do not know the full potential for damage."
