Incident summary

MCKESSON CORPAug 2026
Not yet quantified
VVerified
ShinyHunters claims it vished several McKesson employees' Okta credentials, then walked those single sign-on logins straight into Salesforce and Snowflake. McKesson has not confirmed the entry point or the data taken; only the extortion group has spoken. Single sign-on was built to make log-ins easy, but when secured incorrectly (or not at all) it is just the easy button to own an entire company. The group claims roughly 284 million patient records, the kind of data no reset can undo.
