About the Kairos group

Kairos is a data extortion group active since late 2024 that focuses solely on data theft with no encryption, primarily targeting small-to-mid-sized organizations in healthcare, manufacturing, and business services in the US, purchasing initial access from brokers and demanding Bitcoin payments. Kairos has listed 95 victims since June 2024.

Incident Analysis

oandg.com.au was targeted by Kairos ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 97 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on June 30, 2025, when oandg.com.au appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

oandg.com.au is based in Australia , operating in the Energy sector. Australia ranks #10 globally for ransomware attacks, with 383 victims in our database.

Sector context: Energy sector attacks can have critical infrastructure implications. Ransomware on operational technology (OT) networks can disrupt power generation and distribution, elevating the urgency of recovery.

Kairos 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.
