I _hate_ how this is written. At no point does it disclose explicitly:

* What systems were accessed

* What information was potentially exposed

* Just how "proactively" they've been about this (no timeline)

* Numbers... The scale of any of it

Some comments from quoted portions of article

> Mixpanel detected a smishing campaign ...

Doesn't give any details on who the companion targeted, or how, or how widespread.

> We took comprehensive steps to contain and eradicate unauthorized access and secure impacted user accounts.

So there was definitely _some_ sort of unauthorized access, but doesn't say to which accounts or in what systems

> Performed global password resets for all Mixpanel employees

So... definitely sounds like they expected compromise of Mixpanel employee credentials
