In the information age, data security is critical. Yet thousands of files from dozens of victim organizations worldwide are being leaked on ransomware extortion sites daily. Even as more and more organizations choose not to pay ransom, more of the victim data is showing up on these sites.

The data dumped on the extortion sites doesn’t only impact the original victim. If any organization you do business with has had its data dumped on a ransomware extortion site, your data has probably been exposed as well. Every day, we find contracts, negotiation documents, email communications, intellectual property, and many other types of sensitive data that belong to third parties, exposed on ransomware extortion sites. Most of these third-party victims don’t know that their information is now available to initial access brokers, nation-state threat groups, phishing and business email compromise operators, and other malicious actors.

Constellation Cyber provides a free search through our datasets of leaks from over 40 of the top ransomware extortion sites for organizations wanting to know if they’ve been impacted because of someone else’s breach. For a fee, we can set up monitoring if you want to be notified if your organization’s data is ever exposed on these sites.

We also assist with ransomware negotiations, threat intelligence related to ransomware groups, and other forms of incident response augmentation.
