Asterra Properties Listed by Cicada3301 Ransomware Group

If you are a customer of Asterra Properties, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.

Asterra Properties was listed on Cicada3301's leak site. Cicada3301 claims to have stolen internal data. This is the group's claim, not a confirmed finding.

Asterra Properties Listed by Cicada3301 Ransomware Group

On February 4, 2025, real estate company Asterra Properties appeared on the leak site of the cicada3301 ransomware group with 131 GB of internal files listed for public download. The listing carries a countdown timer showing 10 days, 21 hours remaining, after which the group typically begins releasing the data in batches if demands are not met.

Already exposed?

You can’t unleak data. You can take away what it’s worth.

A leaked record is where it starts, not where it ends. What turns it into your front door is the look-up sites publishing your address beside your name — and those are what an AI reads when somebody asks about you. The free scan shows you both. We write to 580 companies.

What Public Reporting Shows

Public reporting on the cicada3301 leak site describes the incident as a ransomware attack in which attackers exfiltrated internal company files before encrypting systems. The exposed volume stands at 131 GB. No confirmed total number of individuals whose personal information is contained in the files has been released, but real estate firms routinely hold names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, dates of birth, government identification copies, financial details, and contracts for buyers, sellers, tenants, and employees.

The data was allegedly taken from Asterra Properties’ internal servers. The group’s public post does not specify which exact systems were compromised, only that the stolen archive contains sensitive operational and client records.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a company that handles housing transactions suffers a breach, the information exposed often belongs to ordinary families who bought or rented homes, applied for mortgages, or listed properties for sale. Names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses can be combined with data from other breaches to build detailed profiles. Once attackers possess current contact details and proof of address, they can attempt identity theft, file fraudulent tax returns, open accounts in your name, or sell the package to others who will.

Unverified claim — what this report is

This page documents a public listing on a ransomware/extortion group’s leak site, tracked via public threat-intelligence sources. A listing is the attacker’s claim. GalaxyWarden aggregates and reports such claims; we have not independently verified that a breach occurred, what data (if any) was taken, or the accuracy of anything the group asserts, and the named organisation has not necessarily confirmed the incident. Sections above describe what the listing shows and the group’s documented history — not verified findings about the named organisation. If you represent this organisation and believe anything here is inaccurate, tell us and we’ll review it promptly.

Editorial & sourcing policy

GalaxyWarden is a breach-monitoring service and news aggregator. We do not exfiltrate, host, purchase, or redistribute stolen data. Breach information is compiled from publicly accessible sources and threat-intelligence platforms, and is reported as claims attributed to their source. We promptly correct or remove material shown to be inaccurate — see our content & takedown policy or write to support@galaxywarden.com.
