The U.S. election campaigns of both Donald Trump and Joe Biden have been targeted in a slew of recent cyberattacks, Microsoft said on Thursday. The tech giant has associated the unsuccessful attacks with threat groups linked to Russia, China and Iran. One threat group, known as Zirconium, was spotted launching thousands of attacks between March and September, resulting in nearly 150 compromises. Another threat group called Phosphorus, which Microsoft said is operating from Iran, has also been seen behind recent phishing attacks.
