ThreatAI Analysis

Compiled from this incident record and the threat intelligence profile for Warlock. Figures and technique mappings are quoted from the source data, not inferred.

About the Warlock group

The Warlock ransomware and operator(s) are believed to be attributed to Storm-2603, a China-based threat actor who is also known to have deployed LockBit ransomware. There's also a crossover between victims with Black Basta. Both are RaaS and have a long list of known and unknown affiliates. Having said that, this is possibly an affiliate (likely a cybergroup) of both of those groups. The Alliance & Association would technically be Encryptor Sharing, but this is realistically more of an "Old Affiliate" that created their own ransomware encryptor and operation. Warlock has listed 78 victims since April 2025.

Vulnerabilities Warlock is recorded exploiting

5 of these 5 are in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, 3 of them recorded by CISA as used in ransomware campaigns. CVEs attributed to Warlock across its reported activity. There is no indication that any of these was involved in the energogroup.net incident — the source data does not record an entry point.

Incident Analysis

energogroup.net was targeted by Warlock ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 78 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on November 6, 2025, when energogroup.net appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

energogroup.net is based in Russia , operating in the Energy sector. Russia ranks #45 globally for ransomware attacks, with 52 victims in our database.

Sector context: Energy sector attacks can have critical infrastructure implications. Ransomware on operational technology (OT) networks can disrupt power generation and distribution, elevating the urgency of recovery.

Warlock 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.
