Comment on Grafana Labs internal source code accessed

Comments

We recently discovered that an unauthorized party obtained a token with access to the Grafana Labs GitHub environment, enabling the threat actor to download our codebase.

I don't much like the securityese dialect of bureaucratese, but doesn't it make more sense as "We recently discovered that a threat actor obtained a token with access to the Grafana Labs GitHub environment, enabling the unauthorized party to download our codebase" ?

you can't just drop in buzzwords willy nilly, they buzz better in the right places.

Well, "unauthorized party" is a better attention-grabber early on, but then of course it goes into an entirely different direction.
