Vole communes with its inner source to confirm the problem

Microsoft says they are investigating claims that the Lapsus$ data extortion hacking group breached their internal Azure DevOps source code repositories and stolen data.

Lapsus$ is not really interested in deploying ransomware on their victim's devices but targets source code repositories for large companies, steals proprietary data, and then attempt to ransom that data back to the company for millions of dollars.

Lapsus has gained notoriety over the past months for their confirmed attacks against NVIDIA, Samsung, Vodafone, Ubisoft, and Mercado Libre. Lapsus$ is pretty good at what it does, its claims of attacks on other companies later prove to be true.
