SolarWinds’ $26 Million Deal in Russian-Hack Suit Gets Final Nod

Posted on August 1, 2023 by Dissent

Christopher Brown reports:

SolarWinds Corp. will pay $26 million to settle an investor suit alleging it failed to disclose security vulnerabilities before a massive cyberattack, under an agreement given final approval by a federal court.

Investors alleged the technology company misled them about its security practices before announcing a suspected Russian hack in late 2020, causing the value of its stock to drop sharply.
