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.

Reported Details of the Breach

Public reporting indicates that ECOVACS, the company behind popular DEEBOT robot vacuums and other smart home cleaning devices, was listed by the spacebears group on their dark web leak portal. The primary source is the group’s own leak site, accessible via the .onion link hosted on ransomware.live. No exact number of affected customer records has been disclosed, and the precise volume or sensitivity of the stolen internal files remains unconfirmed in available reporting. The company, founded in 1998 in Suzhou, sells its AI-powered cleaning robots in more than 145 countries and serves tens of millions of households worldwide.

Internal files were allegedly exfiltrated during the ransomware attack. At the time of listing, the group had not publicly released samples of the data, though such postings typically precede demands for payment to prevent broader publication.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a company that makes devices used inside millions of homes suffers a breach, the risks extend beyond corporate networks. Robot vacuums, window cleaners, and lawn mowers often connect to home Wi-Fi, mobile apps, and cloud accounts that store maps of your house, usage patterns, and sometimes linked email or payment details. If those credentials or related internal documents surface, attackers can chain them with other leaks to target you personally. Your family’s daily routines, home layout, and linked accounts become easier to exploit for identity theft, phishing, or physical access schemes.

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.
