Western Digital Provides Information on Network Security Incident

Western Digital Corp. (NASDAQ: WDC) today provided information regarding a network security incident involving some of its systems and the Company’s active response to this matter.

On March 26, 2023, Western Digital identified a network security incident involving Western Digital’s systems. In connection with the ongoing incident, an unauthorized third party gained access to a number of the Company’s systems.

Upon discovery of the incident, the Company implemented incident response efforts and initiated an investigation with the assistance of leading outside security and forensic experts. This investigation is in its early stages and Western Digital is coordinating with law enforcement authorities.
