1. Incident Overview & Key Findings

Tenable has confirmed a data breach stemming from a broader supply chain compromise involving the Salesloft Drift integration with Salesforce. While no internal product data was compromised, attacker access to Tenable’s Salesforce instance exposed:

• Business contact information: names, business emails, phone numbers, and location references
• Customer-provided subjects and descriptions from support case submissions

Affected organizations include major security players such as Palo Alto Networks, Zscaler, Cloudflare, Proofpoint, CyberArk, Google, PagerDuty, and Tenable itself. All reported similar exposure of customer support data and contact metadata.
