On December 19, 2025, the Canadian construction firm Kenalex Construction Co. Ltd. appeared on the leak site of the safepay ransomware group. Internal files were allegedly exfiltrated during a ransomware attack on the company, which is headquartered in North Bay, Ontario, and serves clients across Central and Northern Ontario. Anyone whose personal information was stored in those files — employees, subcontractors, clients, or suppliers — may now face heightened risk of identity theft, phishing, and doxxing.

What Public Reporting Shows
Public reporting indicates that safepay posted details of the Kenalex breach on its dark-web leak site. The data consists of internal files exfiltrated after the ransomware operators gained access to the company’s systems. No exact victim count has been released, and the precise volume or sensitivity of the documents remains unclear from available reporting. The posting appeared on December 19, 2025, following the group’s standard pattern of publishing stolen data when ransom demands are not met.
Why This Matters for You and Your Family
Construction companies routinely handle names, addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, Social Insurance Numbers, banking details, and contracts for employees, subcontractors, and clients. If your information was inside the Kenalex systems, it may now be in the hands of criminals who sell or publish it. That single exposure can lead to tax fraud, loan applications in your name, or targeted scams against you and your family. Children’s records, sometimes included in family benefit or insurance files, are especially attractive because they often remain unused and undetected for years.
The Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risk
A single breach rarely stays isolated. Cybercriminals combine the Kenalex files with data from earlier leaks to build detailed profiles. An email address found here can be matched to gaming accounts, social-media handles, or school records, creating an identity chain that leads directly to you and your household. Credential leaks of this kind frequently cascade into account takeovers on Steam, Roblox, Minecraft, or other platforms used by children. Once attackers control those accounts they can harvest additional personal details, demand payment from worried parents, or use the compromised profiles to reach friends and extended family.
