Cactus questions

Is Cactus still active?

Not for over a year. The last victim we recorded was July 18, 2025. The leak site has published nothing since, though the data it already leaked is still out there.

How many victims has Cactus claimed?

Cactus has named 252 victims on its leak site since we started tracking it. That counts organizations, not leaked files. A single victim often accounts for thousands of published files.

When did Cactus first appear?

The first victim we recorded for Cactus was posted on January 12, 2023. That's when the group entered our collection, which isn't necessarily when it started operating.

Which sectors does Cactus target?

Manufacturing accounts for the most victims we can classify, with 53. Construction follows at 13. We could identify a sector for 140 of 252 victims, so treat this as the shape of the targeting rather than a full census.

Has Cactus already got your credentials?

Check whether your employees' logins have leaked on the dark web before they're exploited.

Continuous dark web monitoring alerts you when your company's data shows up, whether that's employee credentials or files published after an attack.
