About the Morpheus group

Morpheus emerged in late 2024 as a semi-private RaaS operation whose affiliates share identical payloads with the HellCat ransomware group, targeting pharmaceutical, manufacturing, legal, and Italian ESXi environments with ransom demands reaching up to 32 BTC (~$3M USD). Morpheus has listed 24 victims since January 2025.

Incident analysis

SCIPIONI was listed by Morpheus ransomware, a group with 25 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on December 12, 2025.

SCIPIONI is based in Belgium and operates in the Energy sector. Belgium ranks #26 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 143 victims in this 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.

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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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

Source. Public leak-site disclosures aggregated via the ransomware.live API. The disclosure date is when the listing was published, which can differ from the date of compromise. This site does not publish or link to stolen data. Last updated .

As a Energy organisation, SCIPIONI likely held sensitive business data, client information, and operational records.

How can organisations protect against Morpheus attacks?

To defend against Morpheus and similar threat actors, organisations should: maintain regular offline backups tested for restoration; implement network segmentation to limit lateral movement; deploy multi-factor authentication on all remote access; use endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools; conduct regular phishing and security awareness training; and monitor threat intelligence feeds for indicators of compromise (IOCs) associated with active groups.
