South Korean authorities ordered on Friday SK Telecom to strengthen data security and imposed a fine after the country's biggest mobile carrier was hit by a cyberattack that caused the leak of 26.96 million pieces of user data.
SK Telecom's recent cybersecurity breach has depressed its valuation, creating a potential long-term buying opportunity reminiscent of Buffett's Amex 'salad oil scandal' play. Despite near-term headwinds, SK Telecom's leading market position, strong balance sheet, and aggressive AI investments support a bullish long-term thesis. Management is prioritizing customer trust and reputation over short-term profits, which is probably the right approach for long-term value creation.
