A ransomware group calling itself Qilin claims to have carried out an attack against Nolan Consulting Group, with the claim dated September 5, 2026. This claim originates from the group’s own listing on its dark web leak site, as tracked by ransomware.live, a security research platform that monitors ransomware groups’ public leak sites. At this time, Nolan Consulting Group has not confirmed this incident, and no regulator has verified the claim. It should be treated strictly as an unverified assertion made by a criminal group seeking publicity or leverage, not as an established fact.
