Serratelli Hat Listed by qilin Ransomware Group: Ransomware Claim — What’s Alleged & What To Do
Serratelli Hat was listed by the qilin ransomware group on December 09, 2025, after internal files were exfiltrated in a ransomware attack. Anyone connected to the company should check for any signs of exposure and take appropriate protective steps.
What happened
Serratelli Hat was listed on the qilin ransomware group’s leak site on 9 December 2025. The listing states that internal files were exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. No further details on the date of the intrusion, the volume of data, or the method of access have been made public. The number of people whose information may be involved is also undisclosed.
The group behind it: qilin
Qilin is a ransomware-as-a-service operation that has been publicly tracked since 2022. The group typically gains access through compromised credentials or unpatched systems, deploys encryption, and then threatens to publish stolen material if a ransom is not paid. It has previously listed organisations from manufacturing, healthcare and professional services on its site. In this case the group claims to hold data from Serratelli Hat; that claim has not been independently verified.
About Serratelli Hat
Serratelli Hat operates in the apparel manufacturing sector, producing and distributing hats and related headwear. Companies of this type routinely maintain records on customers, suppliers, employees and financial transactions. A breach at such a firm can expose both commercial documents and personal identifiers that are not normally made public.
What data was at risk
The only detail released is that internal files were taken. The exact categories of information contained in those files have not been disclosed. Organisations in this sector commonly store customer contact details, order histories, employee records and supplier contracts, yet it is not confirmed whether any of these categories were present in the exfiltrated material.
The real-world impact
Individuals linked to the records could see their contact information or account details circulated among criminal networks, increasing the chance of targeted phishing or account takeover attempts. The company itself may face regulatory scrutiny, legal costs and loss of trust from customers and partners while it investigates and responds to the incident.
Were you affected?
Because the scale and contents of the incident are not yet known, anyone who has done business with Serratelli Hat or worked there should treat the possibility of exposure seriously. Practical first steps include:
- Monitor bank and credit accounts for unusual activity.
- Enable multi-factor authentication on any accounts that may share an email address or password used with the company.
- Request a copy of your personal data from the organisation if you believe records about you were held.
- Run a free exposure scan of your email address against known breach data to check for prior appearances.

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.
