The new names sound a lot more exotic than before.
Financially motivated hacking groups will be named tempest, with PSOAs as tsunami and influence operations named after floods. “The naming approach we have used previously has been retired,” explains John Lambert, Microsoft’s CVP of threat intelligence. “We have reassigned all existing threat actors to the new taxonomy, and going forward will be using the new threat actor names.”
Microsoft tracks 160 nation-state hacking groups, 50 ransomware groups, 300 unique threat actors, and hundreds of other hackers alongside a larger community of cybersecurity professionals that use their other names for hacking groups. “We realize that other vendors in the industry also have unique naming taxonomies representing their distinct view of threats based on their intelligence,” says Lambert. “Therefore, we will strive to also include other threat actor names within our security products to reflect these analytic overlaps and help customers make well-informed decisions.”
