Disclosure context

About CMD ORGANIZATION

CMD ORGANIZATION is a ransomware group first observed in May 2026, with financial gain assessed as the primary motivation based on available indicators. Due to the extremely limited public reporting on this group, comprehensive technical attribution and operational details have not yet been documented by major threat intelligence vendors or government agencies such as CISA or the FBI. Based on available data, CMD ORGANIZATION has recorded a single known victim, with targeting concentrated in the United States and focused on the engineering sector, suggesting either a nascent operation in its early stages or a highly selective targeting methodology. No publicly documented information is currently available regarding their initial access vectors, encryption methods, extortion tactics, tooling, or affiliations with other known threat actors or ransomware-as-a-service ecosystems. No notable high-profile campaigns, law enforcement actions, or confirmed rebranding activity has been publicly attributed to this group at this time. CMD ORGANIZATION should be considered an emerging or low-visibility threat actor warranting continued monitoring as additional victims or technical indicators may surface and enable more comprehensive profiling by the security research community. The group has been linked to 8 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on May 14, 2026; most recent post May 21, 2026. The operation is currently active.
