Light in the Dark: Hunting for SUNBURST

In December 2020, FireEye revealed the details of a sophisticated threat actor that took advantage of SolarWinds’ Orion Platform to orchestrate a wide-scale supply chain attack and deploy a backdoor we call SUNBURST.

This attack impacted organizations worldwide, leading executives everywhere to question whether their environment fell victim. For Mandiant Managed Defense, the identification of victims started even before the public became aware of the SUNBURST campaign.
