SolarWinds Corporation (SWI) Securities Fraud Class Action:

The complaint alleges that Defendants misrepresented and concealed that: (1) since mid-2020, SolarWinds' Orion monitoring products had a vulnerability that allowed hackers to compromise the server upon which the products ran; (2) SolarWinds' update server had an easily accessible password; and (3) consequently, SolarWinds' customers, including the Federal Government, Microsoft, Cisco, and Nvidia, were vulnerable to hacks.

Investors allegedly began to learn the truth on Dec. 13, 2020 when Reuters reported Russian hackers had infiltrated the U.S. Treasury and Commerce departments' systems by tampering with SolarWinds updates.

Then, on Dec. 14, 2020 SolarWinds confirmed the vulnerability was inserted in its Orion monitoring products and existed in updates released between Mar. and June 2020.

On Dec. 15, 2020, Reuters reported that (1) a security researcher alerted SolarWinds last year that anyone could access the company's update server by using the password "solarwinds123," and (2) a cyber security expert noticed that even days after SolarWinds knew their software was compromised the malicious updates were still available for download.

Significantly, shortly before these events unfolded, two investors controlling a majority of SolarWinds' board of directors sold $285 million of SolarWinds shares at inflated prices.

Most recently, on Mar. 1, 2021, SolarWinds filed its annual report, disclosing that it was the subject of numerous regulatory investigations, including by the DOJ and the SEC.

"We're focused on proving that SolarWinds knew about the security vulnerabilities before disclosing them," said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
