The Japanese Space Exploration Agency (JAXA) discovered it was under attack using zero-day exploits while working with Microsoft to probe a 2023 cyberattack on its systems.
An investigation ensued, and saw networks taken offline to verify that no classified data on rockets, satellites, or national security was compromised.
And then there’s the mention of zero-day attacks in the last sentence of a section about countermeasures like closer network monitoring and improve remote access security the agency adopted.
“In the course of taking the above measures and strengthening monitoring, we have detected and responded to multiple unauthorized accesses to JAXA’s network since January of this year (including zero-day attacks), though no information was compromised,” the statement reads.
Luckily, the compromised systems are believed to not include sensitive information related to launch vehicles and satellite operations.
Because the attacker used multiple unknown strains of malware, it was difficult to detect the unauthorized access, explained JAXA.
