CSO David Bradbury called the hack 'an embarrassment' for the Okta team
After the disclosure of a hack affecting its authentication platform, Okta has maintained that the effects of the breach were mostly contained by security protocols and reiterated that users of the service do not need to take corrective action as a result.
On Monday, hacking group Lapsus$ released images demonstrating that the group had compromised Okta’s internal systems, putting“The sharing of these screenshots is an embarrassment for myself and the entire Okta team,” Bradbury said at the start of the call. “Today I want to provide my perspective on what has transpired, and where we are with this investigation.”
Details of the breach were compiled by a forensic investigation firm that had been engaged shortly after the unauthorized access was discovered, but the full report had not been provided to Okta until recently, according to Bradbury.
