MMA Operations announces that it recently experienced a cybersecurity incident that resulted in unauthorized access to its systems. Since learning of the incident, MMA Operations worked to restore its systems safely and resume normal operations.
MMA Operations conducted an investigation into the incident. A third-party cybersecurity firm was engaged to assist in the investigation. Law enforcement and regulators were notified. The investigation revealed that an unauthorized person gained access to MMA Operations’ systems. Through its investigation, MMA Operations determined that some personal information of its employees, clients, and other parties may have been subject to unauthorized access during this incident. Although MMAOperations had security protocols and technology in place to help prevent unauthorized access, the unauthorized person was able to evade some of these defenses. MMA Operations determined that some personal information may have been accessed or acquired by the unauthorized person, including the following: name, Social Security number, driver’s license number, financial account information, credit card number, medical information, passport number, and email address with password and associated security question.
