About the Worldleaks group

World Leaks emerged in January 2025 as a rebrand of the Hunters International ransomware operation, shifting its focus from file encryption to solely stealing sensitive data and threatening to leak it unless a ransom is paid Worldleaks has listed 174 victims since June 2022.

Incident analysis

PinnPACK was listed by Worldleaks ransomware, a group with 177 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on July 21, 2026.

PinnPACK is based in United States and operates in the Manufacturing sector. United States ranks #1 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 10,335 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.

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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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