Operator dossier

datacarry (also tracked as DATA CARRY) is a ransomware operator currently active on public leak sites. Darkfield has indexed 16 public victims claimed by this operator between May 26, 2025 and December 6, 2025. Datacarry is a newly emerged ransomware group first observed in May 2025, appearing to be financially motivated based on their targeting patterns across multiple industry sectors. The group's origin and operational structure remain largely undocumented by major threat intelligence organizations, with no confirmed country of origin or known affiliations to established ransomware families reported by CISA, FBI, or leading security researchers. Limited public documentation exists regarding their specific attack methodologies, encryption techniques, or whether they employ data exfiltration tactics prior to encryption. The group has claimed at least 16 victims across European nations including Belgium, Sweden, Spain, Italy, and Latvia, with their targeting spanning consumer services, financial services, healthcare, and transportation/logistics sectors. Given the recent emergence of this threat actor in May 2025, datacarry appears to remain active, though comprehensive threat intelligence profiles from established security organizations have not yet been published due to the group's nascent operational timeline.

How we know this. Operator profiles on Darkfield are built from continuous monitoring of every leak site the group is known to operate, cross-correlated with community-curated feeds (RansomLook, ransomware.live, RansomWatch, MISP-galaxy). Status flips from active to inactive when no new disclosure appears for 60 days. MITRE ATT&CK mappings shown in the interactive section below are sourced from CISA, vendor analysis, and the MITRE community catalog — we attribute each technique back to its source. Aliases reflect operator re-brands and affiliate splits.
