The Wall Street Journal and other news organisations are owned by News Corp., and it appears that the threat actors that entered the corporation had access to its network for two full years. News Corp. disclosed in February of last year that it had identified a security compromise a month earlier and that hackers had broken into a third-party cloud service containing employee information. Ars Technica reports that the corporation has now delivered a breach notification letter (PDF) to at least one impacted employee. In it, the corporation admits that between February 2020 and January 2022, “an unauthorised party” got access to corporate documents and emails in some workers’ accounts.
