Cybersecurity firms brace for impact of potential Oracle Cloud breach

As evidence continues to pile up, security providers warn customers to secure networks as they wait for official guidance following claims of a massive attack against Oracle Cloud.

A threat actor last week claimed to have stolen 6 million data records, including user credentials, from Oracle Cloud, which could affect more than 140,000 customers. After initially releasing strong denials, Oracle has been silent this week, while security researchers have compiled evidence backing claims of an actual attack.

Oracle this week steadfastly continued to deny an alleged breach of its Oracle Cloud environment even as some security researchers doubled down on their analysis suggesting otherwise.
