has-drop-cap\"> <html readability=\"16.458635703919\"><body readability=\"34.468989958653\"><\/p>\n<p>A U.S. judge on Thursday dismissed most of a Securities and Exchange Commission lawsuit against SolarWinds and a company official over allegations that it misled investors about the security of its Orion software, which accused Russian hackers exploited to conduct one of the most audacious cyberattack campaigns ever.<\/p>\n<p>District Court Judge Paul Engelmayer threw out claims that SolarWinds didn\u2019t adequately disclose the <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/tag\/solarwinds\/\">Sunburst attack<\/a> that began in 2019 and was discovered in 2020. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese do not plausibly plead actionable deficiencies in the company\u2019s reporting of the cybersecurity hack,\u201d Engelmayer wrote. \u201cThey impermissibly rely on hindsight and speculation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He sustained claims of securities fraud related to one of SolarWinds\u2019 pre-Sunburst statements about Orion security, but dismissed other SEC claims about separate company cybersecurity assertions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The SolarWinds breach ultimately led to hackers, whom the U.S. government said were tied to the Russian government, infiltrating at least nine federal agencies and hundreds of companies.<\/p>\n<p>The SEC <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/sec-sues-solarwinds-and-ciso-for-fraud\/\">brought its groundbreaking suit<\/a> in October against SolarWinds and its former chief information security officer, Tim Brown, in what was widely seen as a message that the commission would hold executives accountable for known security failures.<\/p>\n<p>Engelmayer\u2019s ruling is largely a victory for industry officials who have said the charges would create a chilling effect in the field that would make individuals less likely to probe for vulnerabilities if they could later face legal ramifications.<\/p>\n<p>SolarWinds and the SEC did not immediately provide comment on the ruling.<\/p>\n<p>You
