5.11 Tactical Breach Exposes Customer Data

5.11 Tactical, a prominent US-based retailer specializing in tactical gear, has recently disclosed a data breach that affected over 27,000 of its customers. The breach, which occurred between July 12 and August 22, 2024, was triggered by unusual activity on the company’s online store. After detecting this suspicious behavior, 5.11 Tactical enlisted the help of a nationally recognized cybersecurity firm to investigate the breach. The forensic analysis revealed that payment card information, including card numbers, expiration dates, and security codes, along with personal details like names and email addresses, were exposed.

The breach specifically impacted customers who made purchases through the retailer’s online platform during the specified period. 5.11 Tactical has taken steps to notify affected individuals, advising them to review their credit and debit card statements for any unusual activity. Although the company has not found evidence of the exposed data being misused, the company’s findings still highlight the significant risks associated with the compromised payment information. Exposure of payment card details can lead to fraud or unauthorized transactions, putting those affected at risk.

In response to the breach, 5.11 Tactical is offering complimentary restoration assistance to affected customers. The company is also encouraging customers to remain vigilant by checking their bank statements and credit reports for signs of fraud. These measures are intended to help mitigate the potential impact of the breach and safeguard individuals against further financial risks.

5.11 Tactical operates more than 100 locations across the United States and internationally in markets such as Germany, Finland, China, and Japan. Known for its tactical uniforms and equipment favored by law enforcement agencies like the FBI, the company reported sales exceeding $533 million in 2023. With a significant presence in both the retail and gaming industries, the company’s gear has appeared in popular video games such as the Far Cry and Tom Clancy series.
