�WASHINGTON (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 06th March, 2021) The US Defense Department is currently evaluating whether its networks sustained any damage earlier this week in an attack on Microsoft's email service, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said.
"We are aware of the microsoft threat intelligence center's report.
We are currently assessing our networks right now for any evidence of impact," Kirby said in a press briefing on Thursday. "We are also... taking all necessary steps to identify and remedy any possible issues related to the situation."
