On March 22, 2022, Okta confirmed that in January 2022 the Company had experienced a data breach caused by a hacking group known as Lapsus$, which potentially affected as many as 366 Okta customers. Separately, Okta was downgraded by Raymond James from "strong buy" to "market perform," citing a "continually disconnected CIAM go-to-market strategy (i.e. still separate reps for Auth0/Okta, no communication to incent channel cross-sell, no evidence of improved technology/integration [...]) While partners were willing to trust Okta's track record, the handling of its latest security incident adds to our mounting concerns."
On this news, Okta's stock price fell $17.88 per share, or 10.74%, to close at $148.55 per share on March 23, 2022.
