In an SEC 8-K filing, Dick's Sporting Goods disclosed a cyberattack, revealing that an unnamed third party was accessing its servers, though the specifics remain unclear.
The company stated that its investigation is ongoing, initially assessing the situation as 'not material' but open to reassessing if circumstances change.
The absence of operational disruption implies ransomware was likely not used, as the attack appeared to focus more on data theft rather than locking systems down.
An external security firm has been engaged to evaluate the data breach and repair any security vulnerabilities, while law enforcement has been alerted for further investigation.
