ThreatAI analysis

Compiled from this incident record and the threat intelligence profile for Silent. Figures and technique mappings are quoted from the source data, not inferred.

About the Silent group

Unlike many other groups, Silent claims to operate with a high level of anonymity and discretion. According to their own statement, they avoid public negotiations and encrypt minimal data. Instead, their focus is on stealing valuable confidential corporate information — and either selling it to competitors, on the dark web, or publishing it selectively. Silent has listed 6 victims since March 2025.

Incident analysis

Versa Networks was listed by Silent ransomware, a group with 6 victims recorded in this database. The listing appeared on the group's leak site on April 23, 2025.

Versa Networks is based in United States and operates in the Technology sector. United States ranks #1 worldwide for ransomware disclosures, with 9,976 victims in this database.

Sector context. Technology companies hold intellectual property, customer data, and source code — all highly valuable assets. A successful ransomware attack can also put downstream customers at risk through supply chain exposure.

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files are encrypted, so the victim faces two demands at once — pay to restore access, and pay to keep stolen data unpublished.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