Disclosure context

About tengu

Tengu is a recently emerged ransomware group first observed in October 2025, operating with apparent financial motivations and demonstrating a geographically diverse targeting approach across 49 documented victims. The group has primarily focused their operations on Morocco, the United States, India, Italy, and Indonesia, suggesting either opportunistic targeting or specific interest in these regions' economic sectors. Their victim profile spans multiple industries including technology, manufacturing, public sector, and agriculture and food production, indicating a broad targeting strategy rather than sector-specific focus. Due to the group's recent emergence and limited public documentation from established threat intelligence sources, specific details regarding their origin, affiliation status, technical methodology, encryption techniques, and operational structure remain largely undocumented by major cybersecurity agencies and research organizations. No notable high-profile campaigns or law enforcement actions have been publicly reported by CISA, FBI, or prominent security researchers at this time. The group's current operational status appears active given their recent emergence, though comprehensive threat intelligence profiles from established sources have yet to be published due to their nascent presence in the ransomware landscape. The group has been linked to 56 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on October 23, 2025; most recent post May 20, 2026. The operation is currently active.
