About the Vect group

VECT is a RaaS group that launched its affiliate program in December 2025 with a five-tier revenue-sharing model and a formal partnership with BreachForums; its VECT 2.0 payload contains a critical encryption flaw that irreversibly destroys files larger than 128 KB rather than encrypting them. Vect has listed 25 victims since October 2025.

Incident analysis

keliweb was listed by Vect ransomware, a group with 25 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on February 28, 2026.

keliweb is based in Italy and operates in the Technology sector. Italy ranks #5 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 614 victims in this database.

Sector context. Technology companies hold intellectual property, customer data, and source code — all highly valuable assets. A successful ransomware attack can also put downstream customers at risk through supply chain exposure.

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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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

As a Technology organisation, keliweb likely held source code, intellectual property, and customer data.

How can organisations protect against Vect attacks?

To defend against Vect and similar threat actors, organisations should: maintain regular offline backups tested for restoration; implement network segmentation to limit lateral movement; deploy multi-factor authentication on all remote access; use endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools; conduct regular phishing and security awareness training; and monitor threat intelligence feeds for indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with active groups.
