A threat actor gained access to one of the customer support portals of French cyber-security firm Stormshield and stole information on some of its clients.
The attackers also managed to steal parts of the source code for the Stormshield Network Security (SNS) firewall, a product certified to be used in sensitive French government networks.
The company investigated the incident with the French cyber-security agency ANSSI as the attack caused a major security breach inside the French government.
