IMicrosoft ithe iqembu labaduni okukholakala ukuthi lixhumene nohulumeni wase-Iran lenze umkhankaso owawuqondise kuma-akhawunti abantu abahlobene nomunye wabaqokelwe isikhundla sokuba ngumongameli wase-US.
Umbiko uthi ochwepheshe be-Microsoft baqophe umsebenzi “obalulekile” ku-inthanethi ovela eqenjini elibizwa nge-Phosphorous. Isenzo salaba bagebengu bekuhloswe ngaso ukugebenga ama-akhawunti ezikhulu zikahulumeni zamanje nezangaphambili zaseMelika, izintatheli ezikhuluma ngepolitiki yomhlaba, kanye nabantu base-Irani abaqavile abahlala phesheya.
Ngokusho kweMicrosoft, esikhathini esiyizinsuku ezingama-30 ngo-Agasti-Septhemba, abaduni basePhosphorous benza imizamo engaphezu kuka-2700 yokuthatha imininingwane yama-akhawunti e-imeyili abantu abahlukene, bahlasela ama-akhawunti angu-241. Ekugcineni, abagebengu bagebenge ama-akhawunti amane ayengahlotshaniswa nekhandidethi likamongameli wase-US.
Lo mlayezo uphinde uthi izenzo zeqembu labaduni “bezingekho eziyinkimbinkimbi ngokwezobuchwepheshe.” Ngaphandle kwalokhu, abahlaseli babenolwazi oluningi lomuntu siqu lwabantu ama-akhawunti abo ahlaselwe. Ngokusekelwe kulokhu, i-Microsoft iphethe ngokuthi abaduni be-Phosphorous bakhuthazekile futhi bazimisele ukuchitha isikhathi esidingekayo beqoqa ulwazi mayelana nabangase babe izisulu futhi belungiselela ukuhlaselwa.
I-Microsoft ibilokhu ilandelela imisebenzi yeqembu lePhosphorous kusukela ngo-2013. NgoMashi walo nyaka, abamele iMicrosoft bamemezele ukuthi inkampani ithole umyalelo wenkantolo, ngesisekelo sokuthi amawebhusayithi angama-99 asetshenziswa abaduni bePhosphorous ukuhlasela alawulwa. Ngokusho kweMicrosoft, leli qembu okukhulunywa ngalo laziwa nangokuthi yi-ART 35, Charming Kitten kanye ne-Ajax Security Team.
