Sol Trading Listed by qilin Ransomware Group: Ransomware Claim — What’s Alleged & What To Do
Sol Trading was listed by the qilin ransomware group on November 14, 2025, after internal files were exfiltrated in a ransomware attack. Individuals should check whether their information was exposed and take any recommended protective steps.
What happened
The incident came to light when Sol Trading appeared on qilin’s data-leak site. According to the listing, the group states it obtained internal files. No further details on the timing of the intrusion, the method of access, or the volume of data have been disclosed. The organisation has not issued a public statement confirming or denying the claims.
Who is qilin?
Qilin is a ransomware group that maintains a public leak site where it lists victims and publishes samples of stolen data when negotiations fail. The group follows a double-extortion model, encrypting systems and threatening to release exfiltrated material. It has previously targeted organisations across multiple sectors and is known for adapting its tooling and infrastructure to evade detection.
Sol Trading and its sector
Sol Trading operates in the trading sector, where firms routinely manage contracts, transaction records, pricing information and communications with counterparties. Such entities hold data that can reveal commercial strategies and financial flows. A breach at a trading firm can therefore expose operational details that extend beyond the organisation itself to its clients and partners.
What data was at risk
The listing refers only to “internal files.” The precise categories of information have not been published or independently verified. Organisations of this type commonly store records that include client identifiers, trade details and internal correspondence, but the exact contents in this case remain unconfirmed.
What's at stake
Exposed internal files could be used for competitive intelligence, fraud or further targeting of related entities. For individuals whose information appears in those files, risks include identity misuse or unwanted contact. For the organisation, the incident may lead to regulatory scrutiny, contractual disputes and costs associated with investigation and remediation, even if the full scope of the data remains unclear.
What to do if you're exposed
Individuals who believe their information may be involved should monitor accounts for unusual activity and consider placing fraud alerts with credit agencies. Changing passwords for any services linked to the organisation and enabling multi-factor authentication are immediate practical steps.
- Review bank and credit statements regularly for unauthorised transactions.
- Contact the organisation directly for any official guidance it may issue.
- Use a free exposure scan with your email address to check against known breach datasets.

Publicly posted by qilin — 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.
