Laidley Family Doctors Listed by anubis Ransomware Group: Ransomware Claim — What’s Alleged & What To Do
Laidley Family Doctors was listed by the anubis ransomware group on December 23, 2025, after internal files were exfiltrated. Patients and staff are urged to check with the practice to see if their information was exposed and to monitor their accounts.
On December 23, 2025, the ransomware group anubis listed Laidley Family Doctors on its leak site, claiming to have carried out a ransomware attack that resulted in the exfiltration of internal files from the clinic. The number of people affected remains unknown, and no further details about the scope or contents of the data have been made public. For patients and staff of a medical practice, such an incident raises immediate questions about the security of personal health information and administrative records that clinics routinely maintain.
Breaking down the breach
The only confirmed public information is the listing itself and the statement that internal files were allegedly exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. No date of the intrusion, volume of data, or specific file categories have been disclosed. The organisation has not issued a public statement confirming or denying the claims at the time of reporting.
Who is anubis?
Anubis is a ransomware operation that follows the double-extortion model common among current groups: it encrypts systems and also removes copies of data before demanding payment. The group maintains a leak site where it lists victims and, in some cases, publishes samples or full archives when negotiations fail. Its targeting has included organisations across multiple sectors, with activity documented through public listings and security research reports.
About Laidley Family Doctors
Laidley Family Doctors operates as a general-practice medical clinic. Organisations of this type hold patient registration details, medical histories, consultation notes, prescription records, and billing information, along with staff employment and financial files. A breach at such a facility can affect both clinical continuity and the privacy of sensitive health data that patients entrust to their care providers.
What was likely exposed
The listing refers only to “internal files” without naming specific categories. Exact data types therefore remain unconfirmed. Medical practices typically store names, addresses, dates of birth, Medicare or insurance identifiers, clinical notes, pathology results, and payment details; any of these could be present among exfiltrated material, but this cannot be verified from the information released so far.
The real-world impact
Exposed medical and personal records can be used for identity fraud, targeted scams, or unauthorised access to health services. Patients may face privacy intrusions or difficulties obtaining credit or insurance if their details circulate. The clinic itself may incur costs for investigation, notification, regulatory compliance, and system restoration, while also managing potential loss of patient trust.
Were you affected?
Individuals who are or were patients of Laidley Family Doctors should contact the clinic directly for any official notification or guidance it may provide. Monitoring bank and insurance statements, enabling multi-factor authentication on linked accounts, and remaining alert to unsolicited communications are standard precautions. Readers can also run a free exposure scan of their email address against known breach data sets to check for prior appearances of their information.

Publicly posted by anubis — 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.
