About the Dunghill group

Dunghill Leak is the data extortion site operated by the Dark Angels ransomware group, active since early 2023, targeting large enterprises across healthcare, finance, industrial, and technology sectors using a highly selective non-affiliate model, and responsible for a record-breaking $75 million ransom payment in 2024. Dunghill has listed 16 victims since April 2023.

Incident Analysis

Nexperia was targeted by Dunghill ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 5 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on April 10, 2024, when Nexperia appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

Nexperia is based in United States , operating in the Technology sector. United States ranks #1 globally for ransomware attacks, with 9,519 victims in our 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.

Dunghill 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.
