A ransomware group calling itself DragonForce claims to have carried out an attack against P. A. Inc. (Performance Alloys), with the claim dated August 5, 2026. This claim comes from an entry on the group’s own dark-web leak site, which was tracked and archived by ransomware.live, a security research platform that monitors ransomware groups’ public leak sites. At this time, the claim has not been independently verified, and P. A. Inc. (Performance Alloys) has not issued any public confirmation. As with all listings on ransomware extortion sites, the information should be treated as an unverified assertion made by a criminal group seeking leverage, not as an established fact.
