  • ImpactData Encrypted for Impact

Impact TA0040

T1486Data Encrypted for Impact×1

Adversaries may encrypt data on target systems or on large numbers of systems in a network to interrupt availability to system and network resources. They can attempt to render stored data inaccessible by encrypting files or data on local and remote drives and withholding access to a decryption key. This may be done in order to extract monetary compensation from a victim in exchange for decryption or a decryption key (ransomware) or to render data permanently inaccessible in cases where the key is not saved or transmitted.

Swiss commune Manno (TI) confirms a cyberattack that encrypted part of its servers on 4 August 2026; SafePay is recorded listing the commune on a leak site on 28 September

The Ticino commune of Manno stated in a signed notice dated 2026-09-16 that on 4 August 2026 part of its servers suffered an attack that encrypted data (Comune di Manno, 2026-09-16). The commune isolated the affected server immediately and, per the notice, restored data and operations from existing backups in the course of the afternoon (Comune di Manno, 2026-09-16). It reported the case to the competent authorities, filed a criminal complaint against persons unknown, and told residents to distrust unexpected letters or e-mails that demand urgent payments or personal or financial data and to verify through official channels (Comune di Manno, 2026-09-16). The notice names no actor, no intrusion vector, and does not say whether data left the network. Inside IT's teaser of 2026-09-29 calls it a ransomware attack and says a backup allowed a quick return to normal operation (Inside IT, 2026-09-29). The tracker's leak-post screenshot shows a countdown timer of about three days eleven hours when it was captured on 2026-09-28, which points to expiry around 1 October; the post describes no dataset (Ransomware.live, 2026-09-28).

On 2026-09-28, 55 days after the encryption, Ransomware.live recorded that the ransomware group SafePay had listed manno.ch on its leak site (Ransomware.live, 2026-09-28). That is the group's claim as recorded by a tracker: the commune has not confirmed it, and the record shows neither what data the listing claims nor that it concerns the 4 August event.
