Incident Analysis

EVAS Group was targeted by Blacklock ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 64 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on May 16, 2025, when EVAS Group appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

EVAS Group is based in Philippines , operating in the Transportation/Logistics sector. Philippines ranks #36 globally for ransomware attacks, with 64 victims in our database.

Sector context: Logistics companies are targeted because supply chain disruption has cascading effects on customers and partners, amplifying pressure to pay ransoms quickly to restore operations.

Blacklock 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.
