ValenciaLeaks is a recently emerged ransomware group first observed in September 2024, operating with apparent financial motivations and targeting a diverse range of sectors across multiple countries. The group's origin and affiliations remain largely undocumented by major cybersecurity organizations, though their targeting pattern suggests a geographically diverse operational scope spanning the United States, Malaysia, Luxembourg, Bangladesh, and Spain. Based on limited available intelligence, ValenciaLeaks appears to focus on opportunistic targeting across business services, healthcare, manufacturing, and government sectors, with at least five confirmed victims documented since their emergence. The group's specific attack methodologies, including initial access vectors, encryption techniques, and whether they employ data exfiltration tactics prior to encryption, have not been comprehensively analyzed or reported by established threat intelligence sources such as CISA, FBI, or major security research organizations. No major high-profile campaigns, significant ransom demands, or law enforcement disruption activities have been publicly documented regarding this group. The current operational status of ValenciaLeaks remains unclear due to the limited public intelligence available, though their recent emergence suggests they may still be in early operational phases. The group has been linked to 5 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on September 10, 2024; most recent post September 18, 2024. The operation is currently inactive.

How we know this. Darkfield monitors public ransomware leak sites continuously, archiving every new disclosure and the data later released against the victim. Each entry on this page is sourced from the operator's own publication and cross-checked against complementary OSINT feeds (RansomLook, ransomware.live, RansomWatch). We do not collect or host stolen data — only the metadata, timestamps and screenshots needed to make the public disclosure searchable and accountable. Records here are corrected when the original post is edited, retracted, or merged with another disclosure.
