Attack summary

Severity: medium — Confirmed data exfiltration from an organization handling personal data of ~150,000 individuals (employees and dependents), but no proof files are advertised and the leak post contains no specifics about data scope, sensitivity classification, or operational impact. The organization processes PII at scale (holiday bookings, camp registrations, social benefits) which elevates concern above low, but lack of proof advertising and vague disclosure keeps it below high.

The threat group claims to have exfiltrated data from AGOSPAP but provides no details on the scope or nature of the data accessed, nor the specific attack methodology employed.

What the group claims

agospap.com zoominfo.com/c/agospap/357851962 AGOSPAP (founded 2 November 1981, Paris) is a non-profit association (loi 1901) that manages social, cultural and leisure benefits for ~150,000 staff of the AP-HP hospital system and the City of Paris plus ~20 affiliated public bodies — effectively a cross-institutional works-council fund. With 45 employees and income tied to 0.5% of the two founders' payroll (≈€28M/year in subsidies; €49M total budget), it provides income-scaled holiday stays, children's camps (4–17), a cultural ticketing platform, Christmas gifts, social grants (birth/marriage/service medals) and the new Pass'Sport sports voucher. Led by president Jean-Paul Brandela (since Oct 2023) and director-general Anne Schaetzel (since 2013), it is ISO 9001-certified and holds an Atout France travel-operator license with UNAT financial guarantees. Funding remains politically sensitive: a €2M cut by the City in 2023 briefly suspended camp registrations

Disclosure context

About thegentlemen

thegentlemen is a ransomware group that emerged in September 2025, operating with apparent financial motivations based on their broad targeting of commercial sectors. The group has documented 267 victims across multiple countries, with primary focus on the United States, Thailand, France, Brazil, and India. Their targeting strategy demonstrates a preference for high-value sectors including manufacturing, technology, healthcare, and financial services organizations. Given the group's recent emergence and limited public documentation from established threat intelligence sources such as CISA, FBI, or major security research firms, specific details regarding their country of origin, operational structure, attack methodologies, encryption techniques, and whether they employ ransomware-as-a-service models remain unclear. The relatively high victim count of 267 in a short operational timeframe since September 2025 suggests either an aggressive campaign pace or potential inflation of victim numbers through affiliate operations, though without corroborating intelligence reports, the group's exact operational capabilities and notable campaigns cannot be definitively established. Current intelligence indicates the group remains active as of late 2025, though comprehensive threat profiling requires additional validated reporting from authoritative cybersecurity sources. The group has been linked to 960 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on September 9, 2025; most recent post October 9, 2026. The operation is currently active.

If your organisation is affected

A listing by thegentlemen means Agospap appeared on a ransomware extortion site and data attributed to it has been published. If this is your organisation, or a supplier you depend on, the priority is to confirm the intrusion and contain it before the window to act closes.

  • Engage your incident-response team and preserve forensic evidence before remediating — do not wipe affected systems first.
  • Force a password reset and revoke active sessions for exposed accounts; rotate any credentials, API keys or certificates that may have been in the stolen data.
  • Assess regulatory notification duties (GDPR, NIS2, sector regulators) — many carry a 72-hour reporting clock from awareness.
  • Monitor for the data appearing on thegentlemen's leak site and across paste and breach channels, and brief downstream partners who may be exposed through you.

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.
