Play gang blamed, ProxyNotShell cleared and hosted Exchange doomed
Rackspace has confirmed the Play ransomware gang was behind last month's hacking and said it won't bring back its hosted Microsoft Exchange email service, as it continues working to recover customers' email data lost in the December 2 ransomware attack.
"Less than 5 percent of those customers have actually downloaded the mailboxes we have made available. This indicates to us that many of our customers have data backed up locally, archived, or otherwise do not need the historical data," the beleaguered biz said. And, it added, according to CrowdStrike, which Rackspace hired to help with the recovery and remediation effort,"there is no there is no evidence that the threat actor actually viewed, obtained, misused, or disseminated any of the 27 Hosted Exchange customers' emails or data in the PSTs in any way."
