About the Redransomware group

Red Ransomware (Red CryptoApp) emerged in early 2024, debuting its "Wall of Shame" data leak site with 11 victims across IT, legal, hospitality, manufacturing, and education sectors predominantly in the US, using phishing and vulnerability exploitation with double-extortion tactics. Redransomware has listed 16 victims since March 2024.

Incident analysis

Kutes.com was listed by Redransomware ransomware, a group with 16 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on June 12, 2024.

Kutes.com is based in Turkey and operates in the Construction sector. Turkey ranks #18 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 174 victims in this database.

Sector context. Construction firms often hold sensitive project data, client financials, and intellectual property. The industry's typically lean IT security teams can make them more vulnerable.

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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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