In fairness to CCleaner, there's lots of other organizations that were victims of MoveIt's breach.

"mass exploitation of a vulnerability in the widely-used file transfer software MOVEit has allowed cybercriminals to steal data from a dizzying array of businesses and governments..." - Wired Article on the MoveIt breaches

Trusting MoveIt was regrettable, but lots of folks made the same mistake.

I can understand the use of the moveit platform. I can't understand why it took 7 months to tell anyone.
