Frag

Also known as: Frag

Frag is a relatively new ransomware and data extortion group first seen in February 2025. The group operates a dedicated Tor-based leak site where it publishes victim details, including sector, location, and sample stolen files, as part of its double-extortion strategy. Within its first month of activity, Frag claimed over two dozen victims, spanning industries such as manufacturing, aviation, real estate, retail, and legal services, with a global footprint including the United States, the Netherlands, and Singapore. Intrusion methods have included exploitation of known vulnerabilities—such as the Veeam Backup & Replication flaw CVE-2024-40711—and compromised remote access appliances. The group’s operations and targeting style suggest experienced actors, possibly with past involvement in other ransomware projects.
