Is Nexthink affected by the recent MOVEit breach?

## Answer <a href="#isnexthinkaffectedbythemoveitbreach-answer" id="isnexthinkaffectedbythemoveitbreach-answer"></a>

**No, Nexthink is not impacted.** Nexthink does not use MOVEit as a part of our products and services. There are no MOVEit components in our software.

In addition, there is no impact on the Nexthink production cloud environment. Nexthink security team has reviewed our AWS architecture, and there is no usage of any MOVEit within our cloud environment.

Nexthink continues to monitor the situation and other vulnerabilities as a part of our normal security operations.

### **Background**

On 31 May 2023, software provider Progress Software confirmed a vulnerability in the product MOVEit Transfer that can lead to escalated privilege and potential unauthorized access to their environment. There have been a number of large organizations and government customers that have confirmed potential compromises of their data as a result of this vulnerability.
