About the Lamashtu group

Lamashtu is an extortion group that first appeared in April 2026, claiming attacks against organizations in France, Romania, and Thailand across energy, pharmaceutical, and film sectors; it has not yet been confirmed as operating actual file-encrypting ransomware rather than pure data-theft extortion. Lamashtu has listed 34 victims since April 2026.

Incident Analysis

Becker Logistik was targeted by Lamashtu ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 44 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on September 30, 2026, when Becker Logistik appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

Becker Logistik is based in Germany , operating in the Transportation sector. Germany ranks #2 globally for ransomware attacks, with 945 victims in our database.

Sector context: Organisations in this sector hold valuable data and operational systems that ransomware groups seek to exploit for financial gain through encryption and data exfiltration.

Lamashtu typically employs a double extortion model: first exfiltrating sensitive data from the victim's systems, then deploying ransomware to encrypt files. Victims face two simultaneous threats — paying to restore access and paying to prevent publication of stolen data. The group's leak site publishes victim names and exfiltrated data as leverage.

Data source: This incident record is sourced from public ransomware group leak site disclosures aggregated via the ransomware.live API. Disclosure date reflects when the victim was published on the leak site, which may differ from the initial date of compromise. This platform does not publish or link to stolen data.
