TheGentlemen ransomware claims Skyplan Services
Free public brief. The indicators, the detections with Splunk and KQL already written, and a Slack alert the next time this touches a vendor you run are in the app — free account, no card.
Ransomware group TheGentlemen lists Calgary-based aviation flight-planning firm Skyplan Services as a victim, with credential exposure also reported.
Ransomware.live has indexed a new claimed victim entry from the ransomware group operating under the name "TheGentlemen," targeting Skyplan Services Limited, a Calgary-based private aviation flight planning and dispatch provider operating its Aurora Flight Planning SaaS platform globally (Canada, UAE, China, Finland). The estimated attack date is October 6, 2026, with discovery/listing on October 9, 2026. The company has ~85 employees and ~$7M annual revenue, and operates critical third-party aviation logistics services (fuel sales, permits/slots, ground handling, dispatch) for airline customers worldwide.
Alongside the ransomware claim, the listing cites infostealer-derived exposure data from HudsonRock and ParanoidLab, reporting 12 compromised users, 1 third-party employee credential set, 8 external attack surface findings, and 221 exposed passwords (11 flagged critical). No specific malware sample, C2 infrastructure, or exploited CVE is disclosed in this listing; DNS records shown (Barracuda email security, Microsoft 365) reflect the victim's legitimate mail infrastructure rather than attacker infrastructure.
For defenders, this is a victim-notification style entry rather than detailed technical reporting: there is no confirmed initial-access vector, no IOC list tied to the intrusion, and no technical detail on TheGentlemen's tooling. Organizations in aviation/flight-planning and logistics supply chains should treat this as a signal to review credential hygiene (given the infostealer exposure) and monitor for data leak site publication from TheGentlemen group, which would typically follow a failed extortion negotiation.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. In the app the same report carries its extracted indicators, its detections with the Splunk SPL and Microsoft KQL already written, the actors and CVEs it names as live profiles, and the vendor research on the same campaign — the primary source the news paraphrased, cited and read directly.
It sits in a corpus of 11,183 reports from 148 sources, 503 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them — about forty a week that are yours, not the four hundred that are not.
