After web hosting firm GoDaddy revealed a multi-year breach resulting in stolen source code and malware that triggered some customers’ websites to redirect visitors to malicious URLs, questions are being raised about the lasting impact of the breach and the slow rollout of details to customers.
Specific revelations of the attack were made public on Thursday via a GoDaddy 10-K filing with the U.S. Security and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC filings were in response to Federal Trade Commission subpoenas tied to the incidents, first made public May 2020. At the time, GoDaddy did not detail the extent of the breach.
