Danish industrial engineering firm Baytech A-S suffered a ransomware attack that exposed 110GB of corporate data, according to public reporting on the incident first observed on May 15, 2026. The Morpheus ransomware group claimed responsibility for the breach at the company, which specializes in crane systems and material handling solutions. While the exact number of individuals affected remains unknown, the leak involves internal corporate data that could include supplier details, employee records, project specifications, and client information tied to high-value industrial contracts.
Available reporting from breach monitoring platforms describes the incident as a distinct manufacturing-sector ransomware claim. The attackers exfiltrated approximately 110 gigabytes before encrypting systems, a pattern consistent with double-extortion tactics used by Morpheus in prior operations. Industry research from sources such as DoxxScan™ continuous monitoring indicates that manufacturing and engineering firms have become frequent targets as ransomware groups seek valuable intellectual property and supply-chain data. Public details remain limited, as Baytech has not yet issued a formal statement confirming the scope or notifying potentially affected parties.
