Incident analysis
pellenc.com was listed by Alp-001 ransomware, a group with 17 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on March 22, 2026.
pellenc.com is based in France and operates in the Manufacturing sector. France ranks #6 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 569 victims in this database.
Sector context. Manufacturing companies are frequently targeted because production downtime directly translates to financial loss. Ransomware operators exploit this time-sensitivity to demand higher ransoms and faster payment.
Alp-001 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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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.
