Microsoft announced on 15 August that it has opened an independent review into the reported use of its Azure cloud technology by the Israeli military’s Unit 8200, following detailed investigations published by The Guardian, +972 Magazine, and Local Call.

The company updated a blog post originally published in May, saying it does not always have visibility into how clients deploy its software once installed on private servers and devices.

“Microsoft appreciates that The Guardian’s recent report raises additional and precise allegations that merit a full and urgent review,” the company said. It pledged to release its findings once the review, led by Covington & Burling LLP, is complete.
