In early May 2026, the SafePay ransomware group listed Energy Action — an Australian firm that manages energy procurement for a large share of the country's commercial businesses — on its dark web leak site, threatening to release stolen data. In this episode of Tech Talks with Kinsoft, we cover what Energy Action does, the kind of data potentially at risk, the fact that the volume and specifics had not been confirmed, and background on SafePay, an active global threat that notably does not operate as ransomware-as-a-service. Throughout, we flag where claims are alleged rather than confirmed.
