Bitget said in a post on X that an investigation by Mandiant, the cybersecurity unit under Google Cloud, into its Sept. 24 security incident found that attackers first gained unauthorized access to some third-party security devices. From there, they moved laterally into Bitget’s exchange wallet environment and obtained access to both warm and hot wallets. Bitget added that the findings match the attack path it had disclosed earlier. The update ties the incident to compromised third-party security infrastructure rather than a different entry point and frames Mandiant’s review as consistent with the company’s prior public account of how the breach unfolded.
