The Emperador ransomware group has claimed a new attack against OnTrac, a major U.S. parcel carrier, alleging the theft of approximately 197,000 employee records and demanding a ransom of $1 million. This claim follows a previously confirmed network breach at OnTrac that occurred between March 20-22, 2026, where unauthorized access to customer files was reported. OnTrac has not publicly confirmed the latest ransomware claim, and there is currently no independent evidence to verify the extent of the alleged data compromise. The Emperador group has also threatened to release salary information for OnTrac employees. As of now, the claims remain unverified, and the situation is being monitored closely for any further developments or evidence from Emperador. The attack highlights ongoing vulnerabilities in the logistics sector and the potential for significant data breaches.
