Three months after authentication platform Okta was breached by hacking group Lapsus$<\/a>, the company has concluded its internal investigation after finding that the impact was less serious than initially believed.<\/p>\n

In a blog post<\/a> published Tuesday, Okta\u2019s chief security officer David Bradbury noted that the company had been transparent by sharing details of the hack soon after it was discovered but that further analysis had downgraded early assessments of the potential scope.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a result of the thorough investigation of our internal security experts, as well as a globally recognized cybersecurity firm whom we engaged to produce a forensic report, we are now able to conclude that the impact of the incident was significantly less than the maximum potential impact Okta initially shared on March 22, 2022,\u201d Bradbury wrote.<\/p>\n

Hackers from the Lapsus$ hacker group compromised Okta\u2019s systems on January 21st by gaining remote access to a machine belonging to an employee of Sitel, a company subcontracted to provide customer service functions for Okta. Details of the hack emerged two months later when a member of Lapsus$ shared screenshots of Okta\u2019s internal systems in a Telegram channel \u2014 an incident that Bradbury labeled \u201can embarrassment\u201d for the Okta security team<\/a>.<\/p>\n
