Hubspot says it’s investigating customer account hacks

Marketing and sales software giant HubSpot said on Friday that it’s investigating a cybersecurity incident.

On Friday, rumors of some kind of cyberattack against HubSpot began circulating on social media. When reached for comment, HubSpot spokesperson Camille Uzel told TechCrunch that on June 22 the company “identified a security incident that involved bad actors targeting a limited number of HubSpot customers and attempting to gain unauthorized access to their accounts.” 

“HubSpot triggered our incident response procedures, and since June 22 we have been contacting impacted customers and taking necessary steps to revoke the unauthorized access and protect our customers and their data,” Uzel said.

HubSpot is a U.S.-based company that specializes in customer relationship management (CRM) and marketing automation software, and has a market cap of almost $30 billion as of Friday. 

At this point, it’s unclear what’s the extent of the incident and how many HubSpot customers were affected.
