Evaluation

(4:30 PM EST Update) On November 18, 2025, an article was published alleging that SAS source code was exposed. In conjunction with SAS' threat intelligence partners, SAS obtained and reviewed the data and confirmed that SAS source code was not included. SAS determined that the surfaced data was comprised of publicly accessible files published by SAS Technical Support. SAS believes that the data in question poses no risk to SAS or SAS customers. No customer action is required.

(12:15 PM EST) SAS is aware of reports regarding a potential exposure of source code and is actively investigating. We are working with our threat intelligence partner to validate the claim. We will share more information and verified details as soon as they are available.
