Cyberattack Leads to Order Delays at Sportbrand Mizuno
Sports equipment and sportswear brand Mizuno suffered a ransomware attack over the weekend of February 4th, targeting the USA corporate network. This cyberattack led to significant business disruption, including phone outages, delays in shipping products, and website issues. nnThe ransomware attack came at a bad time for Mizuno. They just launched their Mizuno Pro 221, 223, and 225 golf irons on February 3rd, which were preordered and eagerly anticipated by many customers. Customers who preordered the irons faced delays with no way to contact the company for more information. Also, Mizuno resellers can no longer access Mizuno's 'Direct Connect' B2B website used by resellers to place orders.
Mizuno is not providing a public statement about what is causing their week-long outages. At this time, it is unknown what ransomware gang is behind the attack.
