Epiq Global Listed by Everest Ransomware Group

Epiq Global, a legal services provider handling class actions, bankruptcy cases, and eDiscovery for law firms and government entities, has been listed on the Everest ransomware group's leak site with internal files reportedly exfiltrated.

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 indicates the incident occurred in early 2026. The Everest ransomware group added Epiq Global to its data leak site on May 02, 2026. Available reporting describes the exposed material as internal files, though the precise volume and full list of data types remain unconfirmed in initial disclosures. No exact victim count for individuals has been published, but the nature of Epiq's work means records related to large-scale legal proceedings, including class actions and mass torts, could be involved.

Internal files were allegedly exfiltrated during a ransomware attack. The company operates across multiple countries and supports complex legal matters for corporations and government bodies. As of the publication date on the leak site, no deadline for payment or further data publication had been publicly detailed beyond the initial listing.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

If your personal information, legal case details, or contact records passed through Epiq Global, this claimed breach puts you at direct risk. Legal service providers like Epiq routinely handle sensitive documents that include names, addresses, dates of birth, financial information, and sometimes Social Security numbers or medical details tied to mass tort and class action settlements.

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.
