Clerk's notes

SK Americas officially filed a report regarding a data breach with the Massachusetts Attorney General on May 9, 2025. The circumstances surrounding this incident remain under active investigation by authorities and the company, aiming to determine the full scope and impact of the compromise.

Operating as a significant regional enterprise division of SK Group, SK Americas manages extensive commercial operations, corporate partnerships, and supply chain logistics. This business model necessitates the collection, processing, and storage of substantial volumes of sensitive information, including various forms of personal information.
