Microsoft Outlook was reportedly targeted over 10,000 times this summer by a single threat actor, which is believed to be aligned with Russia.

Cybersecurity company Proofpoint recently unveiled its research announcing that a group they call TA422 (or Forest Blizzard, Pawn Storm, Fancy Bear, and BlueDelta) was seen attempting daily hacking into the same accounts. It seems that this is a continuation of an earlier campaign by TA422 against various organizations in Europe and North America. US intelligence links the group to its Russian counterpart, the GRU.
