Profile
SiComputer, also known as SiComp, is an organisation headquartered in Italy. The available information does not detail its core products, services, markets served, size, operational scale, ownership structure, or specific sector positioning. No explicit information is provided regarding its business activities, revenue, employee count, subsidiary relationships, or regulatory roles. The organisation's public profile, based solely on the given context, is defined almost entirely by a single documented security incident rather than by descriptions of its commercial or operational functions.
On 23 May 2023, SiComputer was the subject of a cyber attack claimed by the criminal group 8Base. The attackers, who describe themselves as honest penetration testers, asserted they exfiltrated data from the company. Following the incident, 8Base published evidence of the attack on their dedicated data leak site. The group's stated motive involves offering affected companies what they term fair terms for the return of stolen data, while publicly criticising organisations they accuse of neglecting data privacy responsibilities. The published evidence included a Mega link containing the exfiltrated information. The incident was reported after the victim's listed status on the leak site changed to 'Expired', a term often used by such groups to indicate failed or terminated negotiations. This event represents the only known incident provided in the source material and constitutes the primary documented external interaction involving SiComputer in this context. The attack highlights the organisation as a target of a specific ransomware or extortion operation, though no details about the nature of the exfiltrated data or the internal impact on SiComputer's operations are specified.
