Epi du Rouergue

Epi du Rouergue was compromised in a ransomware attack attributed to nova in January 2026. The organization, operating in the Agriculture and Food Production sector in France, was added to the group's data leak site as part of an extortion campaign.

nova operates as a financially motivated ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation, exfiltrating sensitive data and threatening public disclosure to pressure victims into paying ransom demands.
