On December 13, Galunhui reported that Amazon signed an agreement with Microsoft last year to provide cloud-based Microsoft 365 Office tools for employees. However, after Microsoft discovered that a hacker group had gained access to employee email accounts, Amazon suspended the rollout of this service to employees for a year. Amazon's Chief Information Security Officer, CJ Moses, stated that he believes next year will be the right time to begin redeployment. Amazon employees' Microsoft 365 is cloud-based software, which includes Word, Outlook, Windows, and other software. Amazon has long used Office versions installed on its own servers. The two companies are working to address Amazon's concerns regarding the security of the email and productivity software bundle. Amazon has committed to spending $1 billion over five years to purchase Microsoft 365 software for its approximately 1.5 million employees.
