What the group claims

Should've not messed with us Hotelogix. We gave you guys numerous times to reach back and proceed with payment but you decided to fuck around and you found out. Any company that contacts us because you had a warning or we leaked proof should look at what we got if your concerned then contact us for payment if everything matches up. It's that simple and don't think twice or it can lead to what happened with this company. Don't be like Hotelogix and wait till the last Minute. It's best to pay first to so you don't end up like these companies to name a few University Of Georgia, Hotelogix, starBucks, and more mega link conversations: https://mega.nz/file/mwAGQDaA#TX0wXzN2JmzehD1WxV234_QiHaK7AzSA1PumfWq_HCU

Disclosure context

About ShadowByt3$

ShadowByt3$ is an emerging ransomware group that was first observed in February 2026, appearing to be financially motivated based on its ransomware operations. The group's country of origin and any potential affiliations with other cybercriminal organizations remain unknown due to limited intelligence available on this newly identified threat actor. Given the minimal public documentation available, the group's attack methodology, tools, and operational tactics have not been sufficiently analyzed or reported by major cybersecurity firms or government agencies. No notable campaigns, high-profile victims, or significant ransoms have been publicly documented by CISA, FBI, Mandiant, or other reputable security researchers, with only one known victim reported to date and no specific sector targeting patterns identified. The current operational status of ShadowByt3$ remains unclear due to the limited intelligence available on this recently emerged and relatively unknown ransomware operation. The group has been linked to 13 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on February 25, 2026; most recent post June 16, 2026. The operation is currently active.

If your organisation is affected

A listing by ShadowByt3$ means Hotelogix Company (Hotelogix.com) 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.
  • Report the incident to your national CERT, CERT-In (India), as required for your jurisdiction.
  • Monitor for the data appearing on ShadowByt3$'s leak site and across paste and breach channels, and brief downstream partners who may be exposed through you.
