Crunchbase confirmed it was hacked in January 2026 after the cybercriminal group ShinyHunters published samples of stolen data. The company stated they detected a cybersecurity incident where a threat actor exfiltrated certain documents from their corporate network. Investigators linked the attack to a broader ShinyHunters campaign focused on voice phishing targeting Okta single sign-on credentials, with similar techniques tied to recent breaches at SoundCloud and Betterment.
