Salesforce-Leck: bis zu 200 Instanzen

Google confirmed in a statement Friday that hackers have stolen the Salesforce-stored data of more than 200 companies in a large-scale supply chain hack. TechCrunch reports: On Thursday, Salesforce disclosed a breach of "certain customers' Salesforce data" -- without naming affected companies -- that was stolen via apps published by Gainsight, which provides a customer support platform to other companies.

In a statement, Austin Larsen, the principal threat analyst of Google Threat Intelligence Group, said that the company "is aware of more than 200 potentially affected Salesforce instances." After Salesforce announced the breach, the notorious and somewhat-nebulous hacking group known as Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters, which includes the ShinyHunters gang, claimed responsibility for the hacks in a Telegram channel, which TechCrunch has seen.
