About the victim

AI dossier — public-source company profile

Unknown victim. The leak post references 'Westland' and 'Morguard' as entities that were contacted during ransom negotiation but failed to reach agreement or respond seriously.

Attack summary

Severity: medium — Confirmed exfiltration of business data (SharePoint content) with staged public release; however, no specific proof files are advertised, data volume is unstated, and no sensitive data categories (PII, financial, medical) are explicitly named. Operational context suggests corporate/real-estate entities.

HELIX claims exfiltration of SharePoint libraries staged in four tiers (T1–T4). The group states it has implemented a tiered release countdown on its dark-web board, with data unlocking progressively as timers expire. Negotiation attempts by the victims were rejected or ignored by the group.

What the group claims

SharePoint libraries staged T1 (least) to T4 (most). Release countdown live on Helix. Tiers unlock by stage when each set timer reaches 0.

[ Westland reached out, got the full demand, then stalled with no serious number. Contacting us and dragging process is not negotiation. ](http://helixr2sncrd3ndsz5oho6mzqw3x5u7mvox5zcsngc5wm7v4l5k7oryd.onion/p/380506d310d5417b836512938f95a302a7fb021fbe54b9f392da079aaf9ade1e) [ Morguard reached out, took extensions, then ignored the negotiation with no real offer.

If your organisation is affected

A listing by HELIX means Unknown Victim 3 appeared on a ransomware extortion site and is being pressured to pay before any publication. 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 HELIX'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.
