The ransomware group identified as Blacklock has allegedly updated its dark web leak site, claiming to have successfully targeted four new entities. This group is known for exfiltrating data from its victims and then threatening to publicly release it if their ransom demands are not met. The appearance of these companies on the group’s list indicates they are the latest to be purportedly compromised in this ongoing wave of cyberattacks.
The organizations allegedly victimized by the Blacklock ransomware group include:
- Lumenation: A lighting sales agency specializing in commercial and industrial lighting, serving Kentucky and southern Indiana.
- Solar City: A company dedicated to assisting towns, cities, and regions in integrating renewable energy technologies, based in Australia.
- Navesink Rehab: A multidisciplinary rehabilitation center offering services like physical therapy and chiropractic care, located in Red Bank, New Jersey.
- Riverdell Construction: A custom home builder specializing in luxury custom homes in Southern Oregon.
The group has reportedly stated its intention to release data allegedly stolen from these organizations within approximately six days. Such incidents serve as a critical reminder of the pervasive threat ransomware poses to various sectors, impacting businesses and their clients. Further developments are anticipated as the situation unfolds.
