Firstly, the title literally does what you're asking:

> Okta hit by another breach, this one stealing employee data from 3rd-party vendor

You have to read the whole thing.

Secondly, let's assume you were right and the title was simple "Okta hit by another breach" and there were no other words.

Do you not view it as problematic that the company has in two months had a major compromise of its own services via phishing, as well as that of a company supplying health-related services to its own employees? Do you not view that as potentially hazardous and concerning?

They chose this company. Effectively, they vetted this company and believed them to be doing things in a way that was secure for their employees. If that vetting process is terrible, then it speaks to how organization-wide the issues there are.
