KAIROS is a ransomware operator tracked through its public data-leak infrastructure. The group operates under the double-extortion model that defines the modern ransomware ecosystem: file encryption combined with the threat of stolen-data publication on a public leak site. It continues to post fresh victim claims as part of an ongoing extortion campaign.

For Ransomnews editorial coverage of KAIROS, including incident write-ups, attribution notes and additional context, see the Threat Groups archive or run a site search.

Ransomnews coverage of Kairos

  • Kairos took $1M from a US government body and encrypted nothing

Claimed vs confirmed. The figures above the fold on this page come from Kairos's own leak-site postings and reflect what the operation claims. The table here is a separate evidence class: incidents Ransomnews verified against a public source. Confirmed counts are lower than claimed counts by design: most victims never disclose, and some leak-site listings are recycled, exaggerated or fabricated. Records and ransom figures are shown only where a named source disclosed them. See the full ransomware statistics or the Ransomtracker dataset.

Statistics on this page are computed by Ransomnews from a live leak-site monitoring feed. Numbers update every ten minutes. Operator-written victim descriptions are truncated and shown in snippet form only. Source data: RansomLook (CC BY 4.0), aggregated and adapted by Ransomnews.
