Tom Uren and Amberleigh Jack talk about how recent SharePoint exploitation is a blow-by-blow repeat of the 2021 Microsoft Exchange mass compromise event. The international response to that clearly didn’t deter Chinese hackers, so it is time to try something different.

They also talk about recent cases where outsourcing IT services has come with increased risk. Convenient, cheap, secure, pick any two.
