FULL STORY
======================================================================Boyd 
Gaming suffered a cyberattack compromising employee and individual data 
Business operations were unaffected, but stolen data details remain unclear 
Company expects insurance to cover investigation, legal, and regulatory costs 

Boyd Gaming Corporation, a US-based casino and hospitality company operating 
properties across multiple states, has confirmed suffering a cyberattack 
recently in which it lost sensitive employee data, as well as information on 
other individuals. 

In a new 8-K form filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), 
the company said it experienced a cybersecurity incident in which 
unauthorized third parties accessed its IT system. 

To address the attack, Boyd brought in third-party cybersecurity experts, and 
notified relevant authorities and government agencies. No material impact 

The subsequent investigation determined that the attack had no impact on its 
properties or business operations, but it did confirm that certain data from 
the network was stolen, including information about employees and a limited 
number of other individuals, the form states. 

The Company is notifying impacted individuals and has or will notify its 
various regulators and other governmental agencies as required. 

We dont know the nature of the files that were stolen, or how many people are 
affected by the theft - but we have reached out to Boyd with further 
questions and will update the article if we hear back. 

In the meantime, Boyd says it does not believe the incident will have a 
material effect on its financial condition or results of operations. 

The Company maintains a comprehensive cybersecurity insurance policy, which 
we expect will cover costs associated with incident response and forensic 
investigations, as well as business interruptions, legal actions and 
regulatory fines, if any, subject to policy limits and deductibles, it 
concluded. 

The hospitality and casino industry is among the most targeted areas around, 
with many high-profile cyberattacks in the sector, including a recent 
incident against Bragg , as well as the Scattered Spider cybercrime gang 
reportedly hitting several Las Vegas casinos back in 2023.
