Disclosure context

About yurei

Yurei is an emerging ransomware group first observed in September 2025, operating with apparent financial motivations based on their targeting patterns and victim selection. The group's origin and potential affiliations remain unclear due to limited public documentation, though their diverse geographical targeting across Switzerland, Sri Lanka, and Nigeria suggests either opportunistic attacks or access to varied initial compromise vectors. Given the recent emergence and limited intelligence available, their attack methodology, specific tools, and encryption techniques have not been extensively documented by major security firms or government agencies. The group appears to focus on energy sector targets where data is available, though their small victim count of three documented cases suggests they are either highly selective, newly operational, or operating below the radar of major threat intelligence providers. Yurei remains active as of their recent emergence, though the limited public intelligence makes it difficult to assess their operational tempo, sophistication level, or long-term persistence in the ransomware landscape. The group has been linked to 3 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on September 5, 2025; most recent post September 9, 2025. The operation is currently inactive.

If your organisation is affected

A listing by yurei means www.thepromisenig.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.
  • Monitor for the data appearing on yurei'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.
