Maison d'Accueil les Quatre Vents

Maison d'Accueil les Quatre Vents is known by that alias and has its headquarters in Belgium. On 1 May 2025 the organisation experienced a cyber attack that resulted in the destruction of a large portion of its computer data. In the aftermath, the organisation chose to disconnect its systems from external networks to contain the incident. It announced that it would be less responsive to external requests while focusing on recovery. The organisation advised that any urgent communication should be directed to its telephone line. Administrative staff have been engaged in efforts to restore the affected systems.

They are also working to preserve any recoverable information that may remain after the attack. The organisation refused to comply with the hacker’s ransom demand of approximately five thousand euros. A formal complaint has been filed with the local police, who are expected to arrive on site shortly. In response to the incident, the group is seeking affordable network security experts to assist with strengthening its defences. It has invited individuals with relevant expertise to make contact via private message. The details of this incident were shared publicly through a Facebook post on the organisation’s page.
