About the Trinity group

Trinity ransomware was first discovered in May 2024, believed to be a rebrand of the Venus/2023Lock variants, using ChaCha20 encryption and double-extortion via a Tor leak site; the US HHS flagged it as a specific threat to the healthcare sector after confirmed attacks on healthcare organizations. Trinity has listed 18 victims since June 2024.

Incident analysis

CBSTRAINING was listed by Trinity ransomware, a group with 18 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on June 12, 2024.

CBSTRAINING is based in Canada and operates in the Business Services sector. Canada ranks #3 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 978 victims in this database.

Sector context. Business services firms often have access to multiple client environments, making them high-value pivot points for ransomware operators seeking to maximise impact across multiple victim organisations.

Trinity 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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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.

Source. Public leak-site disclosures aggregated via the ransomware.live API. The disclosure date is when the listing was published, which can differ from the date of compromise. This site does not publish or link to stolen data. Last updated .
