RT Software Listed by tridentlocker Ransomware Group

If you are a customer of RT Software, here’s what is being claimed, and what it would mean for you.

RT Software was listed on Tridentlocker's leak site. Tridentlocker claims to have stolen internal data. This is the group's claim, not a confirmed finding.

RT Software Listed by tridentlocker Ransomware Group

On April 26, 2026, UK-based RT Software appeared on the leak site of the tridentlocker ransomware group. The company, which supplies real-time graphics and virtual studio technology to major broadcasters and sports networks, is claimed to have had internal files exfiltrated following a ransomware attack. While the exact number of people whose data may have been exposed remains unknown, anyone whose personal or professional information passed through RT Software’s systems could be affected.

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 582 companies.

What's Publicly Reported from Reporting

Public reporting indicates that internal files were taken. RT Software develops solutions such as tOG (The Output Generator), used for live on-air graphics, augmented reality, and virtual set production. The company has operated since the 1990s and counts major television broadcasters among its clients. The listing appeared on the tridentlocker leak site, hosted on an onion domain, with the specific article reference dated April 26, 2026. No confirmed total of records or specific data types such as customer databases have been publicly detailed beyond the broad description of internal files.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

When a vendor that works with large media organisations is breached, the ripple effects reach ordinary people. Your name, contact details, or even viewing preferences may sit inside contracts, support tickets, or test files that broadcasters and production houses exchange with technology suppliers like RT Software. Once that information leaves a corporate network, it can appear on dark-web markets within weeks. For families this means higher risk of phishing emails that reference your favourite sports team or television channel, scams tailored to look like they come from a broadcaster you trust, and the slow accumulation of data points that make identity theft easier.

Credential leaks from incidents like this often cascade into account takeovers, especially for gaming accounts used by children that share the same email address or password as a parent’s professional account.

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.
