AT&T identified the third-party platform as Snowflake and said that the incident was limited to an AT&T workspace on the cloud company's platform and did not impact its network.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said that it has worked collaboratively with AT&T and the Justice Department “through the first and second delay process, all while sharing key threat intelligence to bolster FBI investigative equities and to assist AT&T’s incident response work.” The Department of Justice said Friday that it became aware of the breach early this year, but that it met the security standard for a delayed filing by AT&T with the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission, a filing that was made public Friday.
