Kadokawa, a Japanese media conglomerate, has been offline for several days after detecting access issues on June 8 and subsequently shutting down affected servers; company statements indicate a high possibility of a cyber attack. Key services including corporate sites, the video-sharing platform Niconico, and e-commerce Ebiten remain unavailable or in limited operation while teams rebuild infrastructure, but no technical details, indicators, or evidence of data exfiltration have been disclosed.
