Incident Analysis

Rees NDT Inspection Services was targeted by Eldorado ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 112 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on January 22, 2025, when Rees NDT Inspection Services appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

Rees NDT Inspection Services is based in Canada , operating in the Manufacturing sector. Canada ranks #2 globally for ransomware attacks, with 803 victims in our 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.

Eldorado 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.
