Disclosure context

About threeam

Threeam is a financially motivated ransomware group that emerged in September 2023, operating as a relatively new player in the ransomware ecosystem with 64 documented victims across multiple countries and sectors. The group's origin and potential affiliations remain unclear due to limited public documentation from major security agencies, though their targeting patterns suggest a broad opportunistic approach rather than nation-state backing. Based on available victim data, Threeam appears to employ common initial access vectors targeting organizations across business services, healthcare, manufacturing, and technology sectors, with the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, France, and Brazil representing their primary geographic focus areas. While specific technical details about their encryption methods and extortion tactics have not been extensively documented by major threat intelligence firms, their emergence in late 2023 and victim count suggests they have established operational capabilities within the competitive ransomware landscape. The group's current operational status remains active based on the recency of their emergence, though detailed law enforcement actions or disruption efforts have not been publicly reported by CISA, FBI, or other major security organizations. The group has been linked to 73 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on September 14, 2023; most recent post May 1, 2026. The operation is currently inactive.
