The RansomHub ransomware group claimed responsibility for a cyber-attack against Luxshare, a major electronics manufacturer that supplies components to Apple, Nvidia, LG, Tesla, and other technology companies. The threat actors claimed to have accessed sensitive intellectual property including 3D CAD models and circuit board designs. The attack was reported in Check Point Research's Threat Intelligence Bulletin for the week of January 26, 2026. Luxshare is a key player in the global electronics supply chain, making this breach particularly significant due to the potential exposure of proprietary manufacturing designs and trade secrets.
Ransomware attack claimed by RansomHub group
The breach highlights the vulnerability of manufacturing companies in critical supply chains to ransomware attacks targeting intellectual property. Security controls around protecting sensitive design files and CAD data may have been insufficient. Recommendations include implementing stronger access controls for proprietary design data, network segmentation to protect intellectual property repositories, and enhanced monitoring for ransomware activity targeting engineering systems.
