FHIABA Listed by sinobi Ransomware Group: Ransomware Claim — What’s Alleged & What To Do
FHIABA was listed by the sinobi ransomware group on December 18, 2025, after internal files were taken in a ransomware attack affecting an undisclosed number of people. If you have any association with FHIABA, review the details of the incident and take steps to protect your information.
Inside the incident
The only public record of the event is the December 18, 2025 listing on the group’s leak site. The entry asserts that files were taken from FHIABA but supplies no date of intrusion, volume of data, or description of the encryption stage. No ransom demand, payment, or restoration timeline has been disclosed by either party. Independent verification of the claim remains unavailable.
Who is sinobi?
Sinobi is a ransomware operation that maintains a public leak site to list organizations it claims to have compromised. The group follows the common pattern of exfiltrating data before encryption and then posting samples or directories to pressure victims. Its listings are treated as unverified claims until corroborated by the affected organization or by law-enforcement reporting.

What data was at risk
The listing refers only to “internal files.” No inventory of file types, record counts, or personal-information categories has been published. In the absence of further disclosure, the precise contents remain unconfirmed.
- Customer or order data, if present in the exfiltrated material
- Supplier contracts and pricing information
- Product design files and technical specifications
- Employee or financial records held on company systems
The real-world impact
Until the scope of the data is clarified, the practical consequences for individuals cannot be quantified. Internal business files may expose commercial relationships or product information rather than large volumes of personal data. For the company, the incident adds operational disruption, potential regulatory scrutiny under Italian and EU data-protection rules, and the need to assess any downstream effects on customers or partners.

Publicly posted by sinobi — unverified claim, pending independent verification
Breach listings — particularly those originating from ransomware or leak sites — are third-party claims that may be unverified, incomplete, or inaccurate. A listing does not by itself confirm that a breach occurred or that any specific data was exposed. Severity is an automated assessment, not a definitive rating. Verification status is shown where available.
Attributions to threat groups and methods reflect public reporting and, in some cases, unverified claims made by the groups themselves; they may be incomplete or later revised.
