Snowflake customers hit in data theft attacks after SaaS integrator breach

A breach at a SaaS integration provider (reported as Anodot) led to theft of authentication tokens that attackers used to access and steal data from multiple companies' cloud accounts—most significantly Snowflake—after which the ShinyHunters extortion group began demanding ransoms; Snowflake detected unusual activity, locked affected accounts, and notified customers, and attempts to access Salesforce were reportedly blocked.
