About the Orion group

Orion is a ransomware operation first observed in October 2025 that listed 13 alleged victims on a dark web leak site across financial services, manufacturing, and healthcare, though analysts determined its victim list was recycled from prior LockBit and BlackCat disclosures rather than fresh compromises. Orion has listed 14 victims since October 2025.

Incident analysis

kioti.com was listed by Orion ransomware, a group with 14 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on August 5, 2026.

Sector context. Organisations in this sector hold valuable data and operational systems that ransomware groups seek to exploit for financial gain through encryption and data exfiltration.

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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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

Source. Public leak-site disclosures aggregated via the ransomware.live API. The disclosure date is when the listing was published, which can differ from the date of compromise. This site does not publish or link to stolen data. Last updated .

How can organisations protect against Orion attacks?

To defend against Orion 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.
