Ransomware Group Direwolf Claims Attack on Leafwell

A ransomware group calling itself Direwolf has claimed, via a listing on its dark-web leak site, that it targeted Leafwell, with the claimed date given as August 11, 2026. This claim was tracked by ransomware.live, a security research platform that monitors ransomware groups’ public leak sites, and has not been independently verified. Leafwell has not issued any public statement confirming a breach, and no regulator has confirmed the incident. As with all leak-site postings, the group’s claim should be treated as an unverified assertion by a criminal actor rather than established fact.

  • Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your account if it is offered and not already active.
  • Be cautious of unexpected emails, texts, or calls claiming to be from Leafwell, especially those asking you to click links or verify personal or health information — these could be phishing attempts.
  • Monitor your financial and email accounts for unusual activity in the weeks ahead.
  • Consider using an identity monitoring service such as a service like Aura or LifeLock to get alerted if your personal information appears in places it shouldn’t.
  • Keep an eye on official communications from Leafwell for updates on this claim.
