Incident Analysis

THX Transport was targeted by Arcusmedia ransomware, one of the most active ransomware groups in our database with 109 confirmed victims globally. The attack was disclosed on March 19, 2025, when THX Transport appeared on the group's dark web leak site.

THX Transport is based in United States , operating in the Transportation/Logistics sector. United States ranks #1 globally for ransomware attacks, with 9,418 victims in our database.

Sector context: Logistics companies are targeted because supply chain disruption has cascading effects on customers and partners, amplifying pressure to pay ransoms quickly to restore operations.

Arcusmedia 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.
