企业数据软件公司 Alation 确认,日前影响部分客户的一起系统异常事件属于网络攻击。公司表示,已发现其一套系统存在未经授权活动,正在调查具体经过,并将在适当时候披露更多信息。

Alation 主要为企业客户提供数据搜索和管理软件,支持用自然语言查询文件和数据。近年公司也将业务扩展到 AI 方向,帮助客户把分散、杂乱的数据整理为可使用内容。公司称,其服务对象超过 500 家全球企业,其中包括约一半美国《财富》1000 强企业。

事件先由服务异常暴露

本周二,Alation 曾通报一起未说明性质的事件,称部分客户服务可用性下降,但问题在一小时内得到处理。几天后,公司进一步确认,这起事件涉及网络攻击。

公司对外表示,当前已识别出一套系统中的未经授权活动,但没有说明攻击方式、入侵原因,也未披露有多少客户受到影响。

影响范围仍未明确

截至目前,Alation 没有说明是否已向客户发出正式通知,也未公布客户应采取哪些防范措施。公司同样没有确认事件期间是否发生数据被窃取或外传。

报道提到,Alation 的大量系统托管在亚马逊云服务 AWS 上,但现阶段尚不清楚此次事件是否与云端基础设施有关。

企业安全事件仍在增加

近期,多家企业相继披露数据安全事件。报道提到,欧洲物流公司 Ceva Logistics 遭入侵后,已有数家公司报告数据被盗。与此同时,黑客近几周也被指持续针对金融机构和私募股权公司发起攻击。

在更多调查结果公布前,Alation 此次事件的实际影响仍有待进一步确认。
