  • Speaking only to the operations of RansomHub, affiliates of the group have claimed at least 72 victims on their data leak site since emerging publicly in February 2024, a volume that is unusually high for an otherwise seemingly "new" group. We assess that this is a result of RansomHub's marketing towards experienced affiliates from other Ransomware-as-a-Service groups.

    RansomHub's claimed victims are primarily aligned with the Technology (19.4%), Retail and Wholesale (11.1%) , Consulting (8.3%), Energy (8.3%), Government (6.9%), and Healthcare (6.9%) sectors. Impacted organizations are most commonly located in the United States (34.7%), Brazil (12.5%), and Western European nations (19.4%).

    We do not know if Scattered Spider actors have affiliated exclusively with RansomHub, or if some actors may affiliate with other RaaS groups. We present the statistics here for RansomHub as a RaaS organization, but do not know what portion of RansomHub operations are conducted by Scattered Spider actors vs. other affiliates.
