Securotrop is a ransomware and data-extortion threat actor that emerged in 2024 and has been publicly associated with attacks against U.S.-based organizations. It is described as a splinter or offshoot of the Qilin ecosystem and has been characterized as operating a ransomware-as-a-service model while maintaining its own leak infrastructure. Reporting links the group to the Qilin network and codebase, indicating an affiliate-style relationship rather than a wholly independent lineage. The group has claimed intrusions across multiple sectors, with observed victims including manufacturing, energy, transportation and logistics, retail, media or technology-related organizations, and other U.S. businesses. Its operations show a strong emphasis on stealing victim data and using public exposure as leverage. Securotrop has been associated with a leak site active since August 2025 and with double-extortion tactics in which data theft accompanies ransomware pressure. Available reporting also indicates an apparent focus on closely examining and monetizing exfiltrated information. High-confidence victimology places Securotrop primarily against organizations in the United States. Confirmed or claimed victim sectors include manufacturing and energy, with additional activity affecting transportation and logistics, retail, and technology-related entities. Known aliases include securotrop and securotrop_ransomware.
