In a surprising admission that underscores the persistent vulnerabilities in cloud-based systems, Google has revealed it was itself a victim of a sophisticated data theft campaign targeting Salesforce instances. The breach, first detected in June 2025, involved hackers from the notorious ShinyHunters group, also tracked as UNC6040, who exploited voice phishing tactics to gain unauthorized access. This disclosure comes months after Google’s own threat intelligence team exposed similar attacks on other companies, highlighting an ironic twist for the tech giant known for its robust security posture.
