Just in time for the holidays, Okta got a lump of coal in the form of a breach of their GitHub repository for souce code. The intrusion appears to have been targeted at the Workforce Identity Cloud solution and an automated tool was able to access and dump the code. GitHub declined to offer details on how the code was accessed but assured users that customer data was not impacted and Auth0 products were not affected. This attack comes on the heels of Okta being breached by Lapsus earlier in 2022. Tom, what do you think about this latest SNAFU for Okta?
