About Donutleaks

Donutleaks is a ransomware group that emerged in August 2022, operating with primarily financial motivations and demonstrating a pattern of targeting critical infrastructure and business sectors across multiple countries. The group's origin and specific affiliations remain largely undocumented in publicly available threat intelligence reports, with limited information available from major security firms or law enforcement agencies regarding their operational structure or potential ransomware-as-a-service model. Based on the limited public documentation available, the group has demonstrated a preference for attacking healthcare, technology, manufacturing, business services, and telecommunications sectors, with their attack methodology and specific technical capabilities not extensively detailed in current threat intelligence reporting. Donutleaks has been associated with approximately 42 documented victims primarily concentrated in the United States, Italy, Iran, and Spain, though specific high-profile campaigns or ransom demands have not been widely reported by major cybersecurity organizations or law enforcement agencies. The current operational status of Donutleaks remains unclear due to limited public threat intelligence coverage of this particular threat actor. The group has been linked to 42 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on August 24, 2022; most recent post January 21, 2025. The operation is currently inactive.

About the victim

AI dossier — public-source company profile

The victim is listed as 'INC RANSOMWARE', which appears to refer to the INC Ransomware threat-actor group itself rather than a conventional company. The leak post context suggests this may be an intra-criminal dispute in which Donutleaks is publishing data allegedly stolen from INC Ransomware operators, not a legitimate corporate victim.

Attack summary

Severity: low — There is no identifiable legitimate company victim, no described regulated or sensitive data exfiltration, and no operational disruption to a real organisation. The post appears to document an intra-criminal dispute rather than a corporate ransomware attack.

Donutleaks claims that data was stolen from them (or from the entity in question) by individuals operating under aliases 'hulk', 'boss', and 'MoonPrism', and is warning other blog operators not to publish material provided by those individuals. No conventional encryption or corporate-victim exfiltration is described.
