More victims have emerged after attackers breached application vendor Klue and used its OAuth tokens to steal customers' Salesforce data.

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing reliance on third-party application integrations and OAuth tokens creates new attack surfaces that are actively being exploited.

Why it’s important

This event highlights the escalating supply chain risks inherent in integrated enterprise software ecosystems, particularly involving widely used platforms like Salesforce.

What changes

Winners
