$CYCU News: Cycurion Announces Investigation into Defamatory Online Activities and Naked Short Selling Impacting Its Stock
Legal action, including steps to file a John Doe lawsuit, to address suspected dissemination of false information, defamation, and libel against the Company and executives, as well as potential unlawful trading practices
CEO Kevin Kelly stated, “We are deeply concerned about the harm inflicted on our shareholders by coordinated efforts to spread misinformation and manipulate our stock price.”
MCLEAN, Va., Oct. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cycurion, Inc. (NASDAQ: CYCU) (“Cycurion” or the “Company”), a leading cybersecurity solutions provider, announces today that over the past 5-6 months, the Company’s cybersecurity team has employed advanced cyber techniques, leveraging our proprietary technology, to monitor and identify individuals on platforms such as X (formerly Twitter), Stocktwits, Reddit, Yahoo, and others who appear to have disseminated false and misleading information, defamed the Company, and libeled its executives. These activities seem designed to undermine investor confidence and harm the Company’s reputation. The investigation has yielded substantial information, providing more than enough evidence to support further action.
The Company has engaged counsel to pursue its legal remedies against these matters, including taking steps to file a John Doe lawsuit to identify and hold accountable those responsible. Cycurion is also collaborating with the aforementioned platforms and relevant authorities to bring the identified individuals to justice through all available legal channels.
Additionally, the Company’s investigation has uncovered indications of a significant naked short position in the Company’s common stock, which may involve unlawful manipulation. Cycurion is committed to pursuing its legal remedies against the individuals and groups potentially responsible for these practices to protect the integrity of its securities and the interests of its shareholders.
Kevin Kelly, Chairman and CEO of Cycurion, stated, “Cycurion has been a highly active stock on NASDAQ, yet it has experienced unexplained volatility despite our strong operational achievements and innovations in cybersecurity. We have long suspected coordinated campaigns spreading false information and illegal trading activities, which is why we initiated this thorough monitoring effort using our own cybersecurity team and technology. This announcement underscores our zero-tolerance policy toward manipulative behaviors online or in the markets. We believe the Company and its dedicated shareholders have been unfairly targeted by these bad actors, particularly at our current stock price, which we view as undervalued given our robust intellectual property portfolio and substantial backlog of contracts. We are taking these steps, including pursuing a John Doe lawsuit, to protect our shareholders, and we will deploy every resource at our disposal to stop these activities, seek appropriate remedies, and hold these individuals accountable for their actions.”
