Zaffrani Srl Listed by Deadlock Ransomware Group: Ransomware Claim — What’s Alleged & What To Do
Zaffrani Srl was listed by the Deadlock ransomware group on July 10, 2026, after internal files were exfiltrated. Individuals and organizations connected to Zaffrani Srl should verify whether their information was exposed and take appropriate protective steps.
Inside the incident
The only confirmed detail is the group’s public listing of Zaffrani Srl on its leak site on July 10, 2026. The entry claims that internal files were taken, but provides no information on the volume of data, the attack date, or the method used to gain access. No independent confirmation of the exfiltration or any subsequent publication of files has been reported.
The group behind it: Deadlock
Deadlock is a ransomware operation that publicly lists victim organisations on a dedicated site after encrypting systems and removing data. The group typically claims to have exfiltrated internal documents and threatens to release them unless a ransom demand is met. Its listings are presented by the group itself and are not independently verified at the time they appear.
Zaffrani Srl and its sector
Zaffrani Srl was founded in 1959 and is headquartered in Italy’s Marche region. It designs and produces machinery for crop harvesting and drying and supplies equipment to agricultural operations worldwide. Companies in this sector routinely maintain records on customers, suppliers, equipment specifications, and internal engineering processes.
What data was at risk
The listing refers only to “internal files.” No further breakdown of file types or categories has been released. Organisations of this kind commonly store customer contact details, order histories, technical drawings, and supplier contracts, but the exact nature of the material allegedly taken from Zaffrani Srl has not been confirmed.
The real-world impact
Exposure of internal files could reveal proprietary designs or commercial relationships, creating potential competitive or contractual issues for the company. For individuals or partner organisations whose information appears in those files, the main risks are misuse of contact details or business records. No evidence of wider distribution has been reported to date.
Were you affected?
Individuals who have had business dealings with Zaffrani Srl should monitor their email accounts for unusual activity. Running a free exposure scan of an email address against known breach data provides one practical way to check whether personal information has appeared in previously published datasets. Organisations should also review any correspondence received from Zaffrani Srl regarding the incident.

Publicly posted by deadlock — 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.
