ConnectWise suspends Cloud Backup after confirmed unauthorized access
ConnectWise suspended its Cloud Backup service after confirming unauthorized access to the service environment, an incident the source describes as a supply chain attack.
ConnectWise suspended the ConnectWise Cloud Backup service after confirming unauthorized access associated with the service environment. According to the report dated October 19, 2026, the company said on Friday that it was investigating unauthorized access attempts against the environment, and on Saturday it confirmed that the access had occurred. The source, a machine translation of content from The Record feed, describes the case as a supply chain attack, meaning an intrusion that passes through a supplier to reach its customers. The text does not state how many customers were affected, what data was exposed, or how the attackers got in, so those points should be checked in the company's official communication and the original coverage. For organizations that depend on cloud backup providers, the case is a reminder to review who can access backup data, which service credentials exist, and whether there are copies isolated from the main provider. To consult the original, search for the report's headline in The Record feed and for ConnectWise's statement on its official channels.
