This is a skewed question. You have to go back an look at how this occurred ? And how it came about, cause. Remember they (Mandiant, a FireEye company) discovered the breach. However, I am very concerned about malicious actors.Content you might like

With that, FireEye was an extremely big target. They had information about much of the Fortune 500 and Federal government. They also had a large cache of powerful security tools. This made them one of the largest targets in the world.
They were ostensibly the victim of a nation-state attack. These nation-state attacks require people and money, and they are limited who they can attack. So it is not like every company is going to be a target of nation-state attacks. But if you are on their radar, ensure your guard is up.
