Forma Therapeutics Holdings compromised; nightspire ransomware gang claims breach with 44 employees, 143 users and 197 third-party credentials exposed.
Ransomware.live reports that Forma Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. has been compromised by the nightspire ransomware group. The breach exposed credentials for 44 compromised employees, 143 compromised user accounts, and 197 third-party employee credentials. The attacker also identified 62 external attack surface points and gathered DNS records from the victim's domain infrastructure. This represents a significant compromise of the organization's identity and access environment, with multiple credential sets available to the attacker for lateral movement or post-compromise persistence. The disclosure appears on a ransomware tracking site, indicating the group is using the typical extortion model of threatening data release to pressure payment.

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 (Splunk SPL already written, plus Elastic and Microsoft KQL where they apply), 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 13,854 reports from 146 sources, 614 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.
