RT @grafana: We immediately initiated forensic analysis and we believe we’ve identified the source of the credential leak.

RT @grafana: Based on our operational experience and the published stance of the FBI, which notes that "paying a ransom doesn't guarantee you or your organization will get any data back" and only "offers an incentive for others to get involved in this type of illegal activity," (5/6) [t]2026-05-17 16:38:09
RT @grafana: … we’ve determined the appropriate path forward is to not pay the ransom.
As part of Grafana Labs’ standard security practices, we will share additional information from our post-incident review when our investigations are complete. (6/6) [t]2026-05-17 16:38:12
