BK Technologies, a Florida company that makes wireless communication equipment for police and government agencies, discovered hackers broke into its systems on September 20. The attackers stole employee data, including information on current and former workers, before being kicked out.

The breach caused minor disruptions to non-critical systems, but didn't affect daily operations. BK Technologies told the SEC it doesn't expect the cyberattack to hurt its finances, especially since insurance covers most incident costs.

It's unclear if this was a ransomware attack, as no hacker groups have claimed responsibility yet.
