barracuda
ransomware group · aka Barracuda · unknown · active since unknown (leak-site activity tracked on this dashboard since 2026-08-06)
Barracuda is a low-volume data-extortion group that operates a dedicated leak site naming victim organizations; it shares its name with the security vendor Barracuda Networks, but no connection is documented. Public vendor research on the group is limited, and no confirmed operator attribution, origin, ransomware-family linkage, or affiliate structure has been published. Activity on this dashboard has been modest, with five victim listings since tracking began on 2026-08-06 and the most recent post on 2026-08-15, suggesting a small or selective operation. Its self-reported victims span multiple geographies and sectors, including a Brazilian law firm, South Korean industrial companies, and a US dental practice, which is consistent with broad, opportunistic targeting. No specific CVE exploitation or ransom-payment figures have been publicly attributed to the group as of this profile.

- Implied double-extortion model (data theft with threatened publication), as evidenced by leak-site listings; whether encryption is used in each case is unconfirmed
