Not only Facebook and Apple recently suffered at the hands of hackers, but Microsoft is also one of the big companies that are added to the list. It seems that cyber attacks against major companies in the industry are becoming increasingly common, and not only that, but slowly they become more sophisticated. The attack was nothing serious Microsoft when compared with that of Facebook for example, but still served to give a shock to the software giant.

According to statements by a spokesman for the company, during a recent investigation found that several teams, including some units Mac (yes, MS also uses Macs) were infected by malicious software using techniques documented by other organizations in recent days. So far no evidence has been compromised customer data and research is ongoing.

While at no time made ​​mention of Java exploit suffered Apple and Facebook, that will point to a similar case recently affected other companies makes us think that this is the same problem with the Java Plugin.

Such attacks are not targeted only large companies, but any team could have sustained should have been using the vulnerable version of Java.
