Ransomware group Barracuda hits Femern Link Contractors

Femern Link Contractors (FLC) is an international joint venture responsible for designing and building the Fehmarnbelt tunnel between Denmark and Germany. Its work includes the immersed tunnel, tunnel portals and ramps, and the factory that produces the tunnel elements. During the attack, we bypassed EDR and infiltrated infrastructure. Since September 17, 2026, we have had full access to all confidential files of Femern Link Contractors, including internal correspondence, contracts, agreements, insurance documents, tunnel construction photos, site videos, procurement records, bank accounts and balances, employee personal data, and more. After gaining access to all systems, we encrypted all vCenter virtual machines on the day of the attack, resulting in a complete infrastructure shutdown. As a cybersecurity group, we do not wish to harm company and have sought a resolution. In an alternative outcome, this data and incident might never have been published (as with other clients with whom we successfully negotiated). However, due to interference from the Danish police, cooperation was prevented, and Femern Link Contractors will now suffer maximum reputational damage. All confidential construction information will become publicly available, including: C1 - Strategy C2 - QHSE C3 - Risk Management C4 - Compliance & Interface C5 - Project Control P1 - Works Preparation P2 - Design & Engineering P3 - Execution P4 - Completion S1 - Contract Management S2 - Procurement S3 - Human Resources S4 - Admin & Finance S5 - Communication & PR S6 - Information Systems & Document Control S7 - Industrial Relations XX IT - Temporary YY - PointCloud In total, 1,576,452 files and 154,206 folders (2.44 TB) were exfiltrated. The data is available for purchase either as individual files or as the entire dataset. | Status: selling | $500,000
