  • •HYFLOCK claims to have leaked over 6 million records from Cameroon government troops.
  • •The Cameroon government has not confirmed the breach, and claims remain unverified.
  • •The leaked data includes sensitive personnel and operational records, posing safety risks.

On November 9, 2026, the HYFLOCK ransomware group claimed to have leaked a database associated with Cameroon’s government troops, reportedly containing over 6 million records. The leak includes approximately 1.35 million personnel records, over 2.4 million operational records, and nearly 1 million system activity logs. No confirmation of the breach has been provided by the Cameroon government, and the claims have not been independently verified. The post does not mention any ransom demands or encryption of systems, indicating that this may be a data leak rather than a traditional ransomware attack. The HYFLOCK group is a new ransomware-as-a-service operation that began naming victims in October 2026. The potential risks associated with leaked military personnel data could endanger the safety of individuals involved and their families. As of now, the claims remain unverified and should be treated with caution.
