- Victoria’s Secret says it had restored its systems fully after attack
- The company continues to investigate the incident
Victoria’s Secret has said that it has now restored all systems affected by the recent cyberattack against its business.
In a new 10-Q form filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company confirmed to restore its IT network and said it does not expect the incident to have a significant impact on its financial year.
At the end of May 2025, the dealer revealed that it had experienced a “security event” and that it would close its site and some services in the store “as a caution.”
Lack of details
The lingerie giant did not discuss the nature of the attack, the identity of the attackers or the methods used to compromise the systems, simply saying that the attack triggered its event responders.
“Third -party experts are engaged and we took down our website and some in store services as a caution,” it added in a statement. “We are working on quickly and safely to restore operations.”
Usually, when a company is forced to close its IT network, either partially or completely, it is to contain a ransomware attack and prevent threat actors from moving laterally and exfiltering sensitive customer data.
The attack lasted for days, but has now been completely resolved. “All critical systems are restored and fully operational,” it was said in shape. “We continue to assess the full extent and influence of the incident. This incident has not caused a significant disruption of our operations to date, and we do not think it will have a significant impact on our financial year 2025.”
Victoria’s Secret added that it continues the investigation that has held (and can continue to incur), expenses and other financial effects. These “could” have a negative impact on the company’s future financial results, it concluded.
The company is one of the world’s most popular lingerie and beauty dealers running more than 1,300 retail stores in 70 countries around the world.
