Incident analysis

aivi.it was listed by Trisec ransomware, a group with 3 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on February 19, 2024.

aivi.it is based in Italy and operates in the Technology sector. Italy ranks #5 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 606 victims in this database.

Sector context. Technology companies hold intellectual property, customer data, and source code — all highly valuable assets. A successful ransomware attack can also put downstream customers at risk through supply chain exposure.

Trisec typically follows a double extortion model: data is exfiltrated from the victim's systems before files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished. The leak site, where this listing appeared, is the lever for the second demand.

How can organisations protect against Trisec attacks?
