Fortinet disclosed that an unauthorized actor accessed a limited number of files stored on a third‑party cloud drive and a threat actor claiming the handle "Fortibitch" posted/offered ~440GB of purported customer data on a dark‑web forum. Fortinet says fewer than 0.3% of customers were affected, that its products and services were not impacted, and that there is no evidence of ransomware or corporate network compromise; the piece also notes prior Fortinet security incidents and reputational risk.
