The FTC is investigating Microsoft’s cloud computing business and related product lines such as artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, according to a person who was not authorized to discuss details of the investigation publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

Antitrust enforcers with the Federal Trade Commission have opened a wide-ranging investigation into Microsoft's business practices, starting a big legal project that an incoming Trump administration must take up or abandon.

Regulators are demanding information from the company on its cloud computing, artificial intelligence and cybersecurity products.

The reported investigation is something of a parting shot from an aggressive Federal Trade Commission under Lina Khan.
