Enterprise data software provider Alation has confirmed a cyberattack that affected its systems.

The company, renowned for its natural language querying capabilities, did not specify the nature or extent of the incident. It also refrained from detailing any defensive measures it is taking beyond an initial resolution of a reported availability issue on Tuesday.

Alation's systems are largely hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS), making it unclear if third-party services were involved in the breach. The company has not yet disclosed whether customer data was compromised or exfiltrated.

This latest incident adds to a troubling trend of cyberattacks targeting companies that store sensitive information for their clients. Recent breaches at shipping giant Ceva Logistics and financial firms highlight the growing risks faced by tech giants as hackers seek valuable corporate data.
