A Russian-backed hacking group was observed by Microsoft security researchers while compromising popular IoT devices to gain a foothold within several corporate networks.

The attacks detected by researchers at the Microsoft Threat Intelligence Center were attributed to the APT group STRONTIUM (also known as Fancy Bear or APT28), previously connected to a multitude of cyber-espionage campaigns targeting governments around the world, including the Democratic National Committee hack ahead of the 2016 US Presidential Election.
