Iranian hackers have attacked more than 200 companies in past 2 years, Microsoft finds

The campaign, the scope of which hadn’t previously been reported, stole corporate secrets and wiped data from computers. It caused damages estimated at hundreds of millions of dollars in lost productivity and affected oil-and-gas companies, heavy-machinery manufacturers and international conglomerates in more than a half-dozen countries including Saudi Arabia, Germany, the U.K., India and the U.S., according to researchers at Microsoft MSFT, +0.

“These destructive attacks...are massively destabilizing events,” said John Lambert, the head of Microsoft’s Threat Intelligence Center. Microsoft traced the attacks to a group it calls Holmium. It’s one of several linked by other researchers over the past year to hackers in Iran, a country that many security researchers say aspires to join Russia and China as one of the world’s premier cyber powers. Some of Holmium’s hacking was done by a group known as APT33, Microsoft said. While American and European companies have been hit, security researchers say the attacks from Iran have focused heavily in the Middle East.
