Timber Listed by Sarcoma Ransomware Group

On October 13, 2024, the company Timber appeared on the leak site operated by the sarcoma ransomware group. The listing indicates that internal files were exfiltrated during a ransomware attack on the US-based post-production studio. The sarcoma operators have not published any sample data yet, and the leak-site entry does not quantify how many records or which specific files were taken.

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.

Reported Details from the Listing

The sarcoma leak site states that Timber suffered a ransomware incident and that attackers successfully exfiltrated internal files. No victim count, no list of exposed data types beyond the generic description “internal files,” and no ransom amount or payment deadline appear in the current entry. The disclosure simply states that negotiations either failed or never began, prompting the group to list the company publicly. Public reporting on sarcoma’s past behavior shows they typically wait days or weeks before releasing additional proof or full datasets if initial extortion demands are ignored.

Why This Matters for You and Your Family

Even when exact record counts remain unknown, a breach at a creative-services firm like Timber can expose business contracts, client correspondence, employee personal information, and project files that frequently contain names, addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers. If you or any member of your family has worked with Timber, had footage edited there, or appeared in any of their client projects, your details may now sit in an attacker-controlled archive. Internal files exfiltrated in these incidents often include spreadsheets that link personal contact data to household addresses, making it easier for criminals to target you with phishing, identity theft, or follow-on extortion.

The Doxxing and Identity-Chain Risk

Ransomware groups rarely stop at one dataset. Once internal files leave the victim’s network they circulate among underground networks where brokers combine them with other leaks. A single email address allegedly taken from Timber can be chained to your social-media handles, gaming accounts, or family-member profiles. This creates persistent doxxing chains that expose children’s usernames, school details, or linked phone numbers long after the original breach fades from headlines. Credential leaks of this kind routinely cascade into account takeovers on streaming services, online banking, and especially gaming platforms where kids reuse passwords.

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.
