Azroteam is a relatively obscure ransomware group that emerged in September 2021 with primarily financial motivations, having claimed approximately 15 victims since their first observed activity. The group's country of origin and potential affiliations with other ransomware operators remain unclear based on publicly available intelligence from major security research organizations. Limited public documentation exists regarding azroteam's specific attack methodologies, initial access vectors, or technical capabilities, though they appear to follow typical ransomware group patterns of encrypting victim systems and demanding payment for decryption keys. No major high-profile campaigns or significant law enforcement actions against azroteam have been publicly reported by CISA, FBI, or established security researchers, suggesting they operate at a relatively small scale compared to more prominent ransomware families. Current intelligence indicates the group's operational status remains uncertain, with insufficient public reporting to definitively assess whether they remain active or have ceased operations. The group has been linked to 15 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on September 9, 2021. 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.
