The ransomware group dark project named The Excalibur Group (United States) on its leak site on 20 Oct 2026. This is the group's own claim: it has not been verified by Cyfenced or Ransomware.live, and some claims turn out to be exaggerated, recycled or false.

Not confirmed so far

[ Status ]Has the attack been confirmed?

We have found no statement from The Excalibur Group and no press report of an attack so far. Until the organisation says something, treat the listing as an unproven claim, but stay alert to the phishing such claims are used for.

[ What to do ]If you are a customer, partner or neighbour

  1. Be wary of emails, calls and texts that mention the organisation, especially ones asking you to pay, log in or open an attachment. Criminals use leak-site claims to make phishing believable.
  2. Check announcements on the organisation's own website or official channels, not on social media reposts.
  3. If you share accounts or systems with the organisation, change those passwords and check for unusual logins.
  4. Never visit leak sites or download files claimed to come from the attack: they can contain malware, and handling stolen personal data can be illegal.
