Disclosure context

About Spirals

Spirals is a ransomware group first observed in September 2026 with an apparent financial motivation, though the limited scope of publicly documented activity makes definitive attribution of intent difficult at this time. Based on available data, the group has been linked to a single confirmed victim within the technology sector, and no reputable sources including CISA, FBI, Mandiant, or established threat intelligence vendors have published detailed findings regarding their country of origin, organizational structure, or potential affiliation with known ransomware ecosystems or RaaS platforms. Due to the nascent and limited nature of their observed activity, specific details regarding initial access vectors, tooling, encryption methodology, or extortion tactics have not been publicly documented by authoritative sources, and any characterization of their technical capabilities would be speculative at this stage. The group's sole confirmed campaign targeted a technology sector organization, though the identity of the victim, ransom demands, and operational outcomes have not been publicly disclosed by credible reporting bodies. As of the time of this profile, Spirals remains an emerging and largely uncharacterized threat actor with insufficient documented activity to assess current operational tempo, continuity, or potential rebranding, and analysts should treat this group as one requiring continued monitoring as additional intelligence becomes available. The group has been linked to 3 public disclosures across our corpus. First observed on a leak site on September 18, 2026; most recent post September 22, 2026. The operation is currently active.

If your organisation is affected

A listing by Spirals means Pittsburgh Radiology 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 Spirals'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.
