Summary
Okta's customer support system was hacked, resulting in data from all customers being stolen. The company had initially stated that less than 1% of customers were impacted, but it was later revealed that all customer support users were affected. The news caused Okta shares to plummet 11%. However, the stock recovered after Okta reported better-than-expected earnings. The breach opens customers up to the risk of heightened attacks or phishing attempts.
