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

Kairav Chemofarbe Industries was targeted by Trinity ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 18 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on March 16, 2025, when Kairav Chemofarbe Industries appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

Kairav Chemofarbe Industries is based in India , operating in the Manufacturing sector. India ranks #8 globally for ransomware attacks, with 445 victims in our database.

Sector context: Manufacturing companies are frequently targeted because production downtime directly translates to financial loss. Ransomware operators exploit this time-sensitivity to demand higher ransoms and faster payment.

Trinity 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.
