We're primarily an AWS shop but some Oracle BDR assigned to cover us recently reached out on LinkedIn.

I asked for an incident report and received this terse response:

> There has been no breach of Oracle Cloud. The published credentials are not for the Oracle Cloud. No Oracle Cloud customers experienced a breach or lost any data.

Per article, Oracle has hastily rebranded the breached service as "Oracle Classic", for the sole purpose of being able to claim with a straight face that "Oracle Cloud" was not impacted.

FWIW, that doesn't appear to be a "hasty rebrand" - Oracle has had this distinction for a long time.

The hacker has demonstrated that they have/had write access to URLs under login.us2.oraclecloud.com. It's incredibly disingenuous on Oracle's part to claim that this is not "Oracle Cloud".

That exact statement is quoted in the OP too.

Yeah, they've clearly been given some minimal company line and aren't deviating from it. Not going to win any trust.
