ddosecretThis record tracks a ransomware attack claimed by the ddosecret group against Dark Side of the Kremlin. It collects the publicly disclosed attack details — sector, location and timeline — as published on the operator's leak site and indexed by Breach House.
Window Zero
EXPOSURE GAPWindow Zero is the time the breach stayed in the open before anyone said so — the gap between when the attack was first discovered on the operator's leak site (t1) and when it was publicly disclosed (t2). The wider this window, the longer victims, staff and customers were exposed with no warning.

It was listed as a ransomware victim associated with ddosecret, a threat actor linked to the DarkSide hacker group known for ransomware-as-a-service operations in Russia. DarkSide encrypts files on servers and devices, exfiltrates sensitive data, and demands ransom for decryption keys, employing double extortion tactics globally.
