The MS Exchange exploit chain recently revealed by Crowdstrike researchers is how the Play ransomware gang breached Rackspace.
Hackers accessed data from 27 Hosted Exchange customers, though there's no evidence they 'viewed, obtained, misused, or disseminated' the exposed email data, Rackspace says.
Cloud company says the ransomware incident was isolated to its Hosted Exchange environment — no word yet on what data was affected.
The company warns the attack might result in a $30 million loss in revenue.
