On March 24, 2026, flooring manufacturer Congoleum appeared on the leak site of the DragonForce ransomware group. The company, founded in 1886 and based in Mercerville, New Jersey, is claimed to have had internal files exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. While the exact number of people affected remains unknown, anyone whose personal information was stored in Congoleum’s systems could now be at risk.

What Public Reporting Shows
Public reporting indicates that DragonForce posted proof of the breach on its leak site, showing that the attackers had successfully accessed and removed internal documents. Available reporting describes the incident as a classic ransomware operation in which the group first gains entry, exfiltrates data, and then demands payment to prevent publication. No confirmed total of records or specific customer lists has been released by either the company or the attackers. The breach joins a growing list of manufacturing and consumer-product companies targeted in similar campaigns during the past year.
Why This Matters for You and Your Family
When a company like Congoleum suffers a breach, the information exposed is rarely limited to business documents. Internal files often contain employee records, vendor contracts, customer details, and payment information. If your name, address, phone number, email, or payment data was ever shared with Congoleum or one of its partners, that information may now be in the hands of criminals. For ordinary families this can mean sudden spikes in spam, identity-theft attempts, or targeted scams that feel personal because the attackers already know details about where you live or what you bought.
Children’s information is frequently swept up in these leaks when family accounts or school-related orders are stored in the same systems. A single exposure can give attackers the starting point they need to build a full profile on every member of your household.
