Okta shares fall 11% after company says client files were accessed by hackers via its support system

Okta's customer offerings, including its production service, were not impacted and are fully operational, the company said.

The breach disclosed Friday does not impact client systems, just a support platform Okta uses to help its clients diagnose issues.
