Salesforce Handed Data Breach Lawsuit Setback by Federal Judge
A California federal judge has denied Salesforce's bid to dismiss a proposed class action alleging security weaknesses in its cloud platform allowed hackers to steal customer data.
The lawsuit claims that Salesforce failed to adequately protect user information, resulting in a breach of its customers' trust.
Salesforce had sought to dismiss the case, arguing that it lacked standing and was without merit. However, the judge's ruling allows the lawsuit to proceed.
