Disclosure context

About Lv

Lv is a financially motivated ransomware group that emerged in November 2021, operating with relatively low visibility compared to major ransomware families but maintaining consistent activity across multiple regions and sectors. The group's country of origin and specific affiliations remain undocumented in public threat intelligence reporting, though their targeting patterns suggest they operate independently rather than as part of a larger ransomware-as-a-service ecosystem. Limited public documentation exists regarding Lv's specific attack methodology, initial access vectors, or technical capabilities, though their successful compromise of 115 documented victims across diverse sectors indicates they employ conventional ransomware deployment techniques. The group has demonstrated a preference for targeting critical infrastructure and business services, with notable geographic focus on Russia, France, Malaysia, the United States, and the Netherlands, spanning sectors including energy, telecommunications, business services, media, and non-profit organizations. Current intelligence suggests Lv remains active as of recent reporting, though the group maintains a lower profile than prominent ransomware families and has not been subject to major law enforcement disruption operations. The group has been linked to 115 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on November 22, 2021; most recent post March 13, 2024. The operation is currently inactive.
