Daubert Chemical Breach Confirmed

On May 15, 2024, the LockBit3 ransomware group listed daubertchemical.com on its leak site, marking the public disclosure of a ransomware attack against Daubert Chemical Company. The company, which has supplied rust preventive coatings, industrial greases, sound deadening coatings, laminating adhesives, and corrosion inhibitors since 1935, now finds its internal files exposed. The leak-site listing does not specify the number of records affected or detail the exact data types beyond claiming that internal files were exfiltrated during the ransomware incident.

Primary Disclosure Details

The LockBit3 leak site entry states that Daubert Chemical suffered a ransomware attack in which attackers gained access to the company’s systems, exfiltrated internal files, and are now publishing samples as part of their extortion campaign. No victim count is provided, and the notification does not quantify how many employees, customers, or partners may be impacted. The disclosure indicates the data was taken prior to the May 15 publication date, but the precise breach window remains unknown. Public mirrors of the leak site, such as ransomware.live, preserve the original post at the .onion address, allowing verification of the group’s claims without relying on secondary news coverage.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a manufacturer like Daubert Chemical loses control of internal files, the consequences often reach far beyond the company. Suppliers, distributors, and customers frequently appear in invoices, contracts, shipping records, and contact lists. If your employer, your spouse’s employer, or a business you deal with works with Daubert, your name, email address, phone number, or physical address could sit inside those exfiltrated documents. Internal files exfiltrated in ransomware attack frequently contain spreadsheets that map people to addresses, payment details, or employee records. Once published on a ransomware leak site, that information never truly disappears; it spreads across forums, Telegram channels, and data broker databases within days.

Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risks

Exposed internal files create long identity chains. An email address found in a vendor spreadsheet can be cross-referenced with breached credentials from other incidents, linking your work identity to personal accounts. Attackers then use those connections to target you or your family members through phishing, account takeover attempts, or outright doxxing. Children’s gaming accounts are especially vulnerable because the same email or password reused for a parent’s work-related registration often protects a child’s Roblox, Fortnite, or Steam profile. A single leak can therefore cascade into harassment, swatting risks, or financial fraud that touches every member of the household.

LockBit3 Track Record

Public reporting attributes the LockBit3 variant to the LockBit ransomware operation, which first appeared in 2019 and rebranded to LockBit 3.0 in 2022 after releasing new encryption tools and a bug-bounty program for affiliates. The group has claimed responsibility for attacks on hundreds of organizations worldwide, including previous victims in manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics sectors. Their standard playbook involves initial access through compromised remote desktop credentials or phishing, followed by lateral movement, data exfiltration, and dual extortion: demanding ransom for decryption keys while threatening to publish stolen files on their leak site if payment is not made. The May 15 listing of Daubert Chemical follows this exact pattern.

What to do

• Run a DoxxScan to map every link between your handles, emails, phone numbers, and real identity, including cleanup of exposed records.
• Rotate any password you used at daubertchemical.com or related vendor portals anywhere it has been reused, and enable 2FA through an authenticator app rather than SMS.
• Enable continuous DoxxScan monitoring across 13.1B+ breach records and 100+ platforms so the next exposure surfaces in hours instead of months.
• Cover the household with DoxxScan family protection that extends to dependents and children’s gaming accounts often chained to the same addresses or credentials.
• Let remediation specialists handle data-broker takedown requests and persistent leak-site references on your behalf.
