About the organisation
Gov.br โ this is the official state digital platform and domain zone of the Brazilian Federal G...
What the listing means
gov.br appeared on the apt73 leak site on 23 June 2026. Groups publish a victim once negotiations stall or as pressure during them, so a listing usually means data was already exfiltrated โ the attack itself is dated 15 April 2024, 799 days before the listing. This group has published 9 claims in the last 30 days and remains active.
Recommended actions
- Treat any unsolicited message referencing gov.br as suspicious โ leaked data gets weaponised for phishing within days.
- If you hold an account on gov.br, change that password now, update it anywhere you reused it, and enable two-factor authentication.
- Other Public Sector organisations should review this group's known TTPs and validate detection coverage against them.
- Watch for follow-on extortion: stolen data is often re-leaked or resold after the initial listing.
- A leak-site listing is a claim made by the attacker, not a confirmed breach โ check the organisation's own disclosures before acting on it.
