booba project

Booba Project is a ransomware group that operates with an extortion model, threatening to release stolen data unless negotiations occur, as evidenced by leak-site postings and data-exfiltration claims from victims such as GOTTHELF (about 2 GB) and Tulare Western High School. The victims cover multiple sectors, with Professional Services, Technology, Business Services, Manufacturing, and Hospitality most often affected, and they have been reported in the US, ES, RU, MX, and MD. Recent reporting shows a pattern of data exfiltration followed by public leak-site announcements to pressure negotiations; for example, on 2026-09-22 Booba Project listed GOTTHELF and Tulare Western High School on its leak site, with GOTTHELF reportedly holding about 2 GB of stolen data and Tulare Western allegedly suffering a larger breach. These incidences indicate a focus on healthcare and educational victims among a broader set of targets.
