Difficult to tell who administrator is
Either MS doesn't have good enough security for its own websites

From the article:
Microsoft said it is working to restore the site, which is hosted at an unidentified third-party Web hosting company.

Very likely that the administrators at the hosting company are to blame for this one. The hacker took advantage of a script that probably should not have been on the server in the first place.
