Summary

Cloudflare recently disclosed a security breach linked to the Salesloft Drift incident, where an external threat actor accessed Cloudflare's Salesforce instance, affecting hundreds of companies globally. The breach enabled unauthorized access to customer support case data, potentially compromising sensitive information, though no Cloudflare infrastructure was directly affected. In response, Cloudflare initiated a comprehensive investigation and implemented security measures, including disabling compromised integrations, rotating credentials, and notifying affected customers. The breach highlighted the risks associated with third-party integrations, leading Cloudflare to enhance its security protocols and share threat intelligence to prevent future incidents. The company has apologized for the breach and is committed to preventing similar occurrences in the future.
