Senator Calls Out Microsoft’s “Gross Cybersecurity Negligence”

Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) is urging the FTC to investigate Microsoft, accusing it of leaving critical infrastructure—and millions of patients—exposed to ransomware.

  • A DNI report found 5,000+ ransomware attacks in 2024, with nearly half targeting U.S. victims.

  • Wyden argues Microsoft’s default security settings and reliance on outdated RC4 encryption enabled attacks like the Ascension hack, which compromised 5.6 million patient records.

  • Despite warnings, Microsoft has yet to patch key vulnerabilities, while selling costly add-on security services that many see as profiting from its own weak defaults.

Wyden’s push: force Microsoft to provide secure software by default—or risk further attacks on healthcare and critical infrastructure.
