UMicrosoft uthe iqela lehacker ekukholelwa ukuba linxulunyaniswa norhulumente waseIran lenze iphulo elijolise kwiiakhawunti zabantu abanxulunyaniswa nomnye wabagqatswa baseMelika.
Ingxelo ithi iingcali zeMicrosoft zirekhode umsebenzi "obalulekileyo" kwi-cyberspace kwiqela elibizwa ngokuba yiPhosphorous. Izenzo zaba hacker zazijolise ekungeneni kwii-akhawunti zamagosa akhoyo kunye nalawo ebesakuba ngamagosa karhulumente waseMelika, iintatheli ezibhala ngezopolitiko zehlabathi, kunye nabantu base-Irani abaziwayo abahlala phesheya.
Ngokutsho kweMicrosoft, ngaphezu kweentsuku ze-30 ngo-Agasti-Septemba, abahlaseli basePhosphorous benza ngaphezu kwe-2700 imizamo yokubamba iziqinisekiso kwii-akhawunti ze-imeyile zabantu abahlukeneyo, behlasela ii-akhawunti ze-241. Ekugqibeleni, abahlaseli baqhekeze iiakhawunti ezine ezazingadityaniswanga nomgqatswa womongameli wase-US.
Umyalezo ukwatsho ukuba izenzo zeqela le-hacker "bezingekho ngobuchwephesha obukhethekileyo." Ngaphandle koku, abahlaseli babenazo iinkcukacha ezininzi zobuqu zabantu abathe bahlaselwa iiakhawunti zabo. Ngokusekwe koku, iMicrosoft igqibe kwelokuba abahlaseli abavela kwiPhosphorous bakhuthazekile kwaye bazimisele ukuchitha ixesha elifunekayo beqokelela ulwazi malunga namaxhoba anokubakho kunye nokulungiselela uhlaselo.
IMicrosoft ibilandelela imisebenzi yeqela lePhosphorous ukusukela ngo-2013. Ngo-Matshi walo nyaka, abameli beMicrosoft babhengeze ukuba inkampani ifumene umyalelo wenkundla, ngesiseko apho iiwebhusayithi ezingama-99 ezisetyenziswa ngabahlaseli abavela kwiPhosphorous ukwenza uhlaselo zithathwe phantsi kolawulo. NgokukaMicrosoft, iqela ekuthethwa ngalo likwabizwa ngokuba yi-ART 35, iKitten enomtsalane kunye neqela le-Ajax loKhuseleko.
