Boyd Gaming Corp. isn’t saying whether it paid a ransom to cybercriminals who broke into its internal information technology systems.
The company, which operates 11 local properties, including three in downtown Las Vegas, reported the cyberattack Tuesday in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It didn’t say when the attack occurred or when and how it was discovered.
In a Wednesday email, Las Vegas-based Boyd said it would have no further comment beyond the five-paragraph notice in its SEC 8-K filing.
“Upon detecting the incident, the company promptly took steps to respond to the incident with the assistance of leading external cybersecurity experts and in cooperation with federal law enforcement authorities,” the filing said.
