Incident analysis

Gate | Crypto Exchange was listed by Byod ransomware, a group with 11 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on October 7, 2026.

Sector context. Financial sector organisations are targeted for their access to funds, sensitive financial data, and the reputational damage a public breach can cause. Regulatory requirements also increase recovery costs.

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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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