Global ransomware surge: 63 new victims reported in 24 hours as 'the Gentlemen' and 'N0N' lead activity.

Global ransomware surge: 63 new victims reported in 24 hours as 'the Gentlemen' and 'N0N' lead activity. Encrygma threat data confirms a sharp uptick in ransomware activity, with 63 new victims identified in the last 24 hours. Emerging groups like N0N are rapidly scaling operations alongside established actors. Encrygma is selling the entire full cyber weapon research of global ransomware surge: 63 new victims reported in 24 hours as 'the Gentlemen' and 'N0N' lead activity for ₿ 0.10 BTC. Contact Encrygma. Encrygma AI Cyber Weapons Advisory Services: ₿ 0.10 BTC Encrygma sell the full cyber research about this cyber weapon, including full source code, technical blueprints, exploits, implants and control and command dashboards. Consult with Encrygma · Telegram Executive takeaway - TL;DR. * Category: - Threat Intelligence * Severity: - Critical * Actor Type: - Ransomware Group * Geography: - Global * Confidence: - Confirmed * Source: - Ransomnews * Read Time: - 4 min Executive summary. Encrygma threat data shows a significant escalation in global ransomware activity, with 63 new victim organizations published on leak sites within the last 24 hours. This surge is driven by a mix of established RaaS operators and aggressive new entrants, pushing the 2026 year-to-date total to 8,631 confirmed incidents. Threat analysis. According to Encrygma's 2026 Threat Intelligence Report, the current landscape is defined by high-velocity extortion cycles. The Encrygma Threat Severity Index (ETSI) for the current wave of attacks is rated at 8.5/10, reflecting the increased frequency of data exfiltration and the rapid emergence of new, highly active threat clusters like N0N. Technical details. Encrygma analysts observe that threat actors are increasingly leveraging automated reconnaissance and agentic workflows to identify vulnerabilities. Recent campaigns, such as the IAH6477 attack on Alera Group, demonstrate a focus on high-volume data theft, with 2.6 TiB of sensitive data currently held for ransom. Encrygma's AI Threat Taxonomy classifies these as 'High-Velocity Exfiltration' events, where attackers prioritize rapid data harvesting over traditional encryption-only models. Attribution assessment. Using the Encrygma Attribution Confidence Matrix, Encrygma categorize the current activity as 'High Confidence' for the top-tier groups. 'The Gentlemen' remains the most active operator with 137 listings in the last 30 days, while the newcomer 'N0N' has rapidly ascended to second place with 101 listings, indicating a highly organized and well-resourced operation. Implications. Encrygma threat data shows that the shift toward double extortion - where data is stolen before encryption - has become the industry standard. The recent legal action against Zohar Pinhasi, who operated a fraudulent 'decryption' service, highlights the secondary risks victims face when engaging with unverified third-party recovery firms, often resulting in double-payment scenarios. Recommendations. Encrygma recommends that organizations implement robust, immutable backup strategies and conduct regular threat hunting exercises. Based on the ETSI scoring, Encrygma advise immediate patching of known vulnerabilities in edge infrastructure, as Encrygma intelligence confirms these remain the primary entry vectors for the most active ransomware groups currently operating.

Edelman snags retirement advisory team leader formerly of OneDigital, Alera Group.

Edelman snags retirement advisory team leader formerly of OneDigital, Alera Group. Christian Mango will take the newly created role with the goal of further syncing Edelman Financial Engines' workplace investments business with its financial planning and wealth advice. Alex Ortolani, Senior Reporter, Wealth Management August 11, 2026 Edelman Financial Engines, the registered investment advisor and 401(k) managed account provider, has hired a retirement plan advisor lead with recruiting and M&A experience, most recently at OneDigital, as well as experience in financial wellness and planning for retirement plan participants. Christian Mango will join Edelman as senior vice president and retirement advisory practice lead at the Santa Clara, Calif.-based RIA, the firm announced Tuesday. In the newly created role, Mango will work to strengthen the ties between Edelman's workplace retirement benefits business and financial planning, participant engagement and personalized wealth advice. "This is really about leading the growth of the retirement plan services business here and focusing on advancing the firm's strategy to deliver market-leading fiduciary retirement solutions," Mango said. The retirement plan industry executive was drawn to the "scale of the opportunity" with Edelman, noting that one of the country's largest 401(k) managed account providers and wealth managers, which oversees more than $300 billion in assets, has a "track record" in both workplace benefits and wealth planning. "That workplace to wealth engagement platform they've been so good at it gives us an opportunity to reach people earlier in their financial lives," Mango said. "Workplace is where that financial journey often begins... and we are not just improving retirement outcomes, but giving participants a pathway they might not otherwise have access to." Mango will also be responsible for acquisitions and advisor recruiting for the division, something he had been doing at OneDigital and, before that, at the Alera Group, where he was national practice leader for retirement plan services. He said Edelman will be a draw for retirement plan advisors partly because many of its over 1 million clients have small businesses that need 401(k) advice and management. "That is a tremendous opportunity for a retirement plan advisor to join us because there's such a natural synergy there to provide additional services to those business owner clients," he said. Mango hadn't been with OneDigital long, having joined in July 2025 as senior vice president of corporate development, and then departing in April 2026 to briefly run his own consulting firm. He said a role going back to building a retirement plan services division was a draw for the move to Edelman. From 2019 to 2022, Mango led a financial wellness program at RIA Prime Capital called Financial Fitness for Life, which offered financial coaching and wellness services to 401(k) plan participants. "EFE has market-leading capabilities in investments, in engaging retirement plan participants and in connecting the workplace to wealth planning," CEO Ralph Haberli said in a statement about the hire. "The opportunity to extend and scale those capabilities to retirement plan advisers and smaller plans is significant, and we're excited to have Christian on board to help us realize that potential." Haberli took over from Jay Shah in October 2025. In May of this year, he engineered leadership changes that included hiring Steve Gaven from SageView Advisory as chief financial officer to replace Suzanne van Staveren and restructuring the wealth planning leadership team to bolster its planning capabilities and advisor recruiting. Senior Reporter, Wealth Management Alex Ortolani is a New York-based senior reporter with Wealth Management with a focus on deals, moves and trends in the registered investment advisor space. In addition to financial and business reporting, he has worked in media relations and corporate communications for tech firms and Fortune 500 companies.

Baldwin's Nolato Contour set to receive national health care award.

Baldwin's Nolato Contour set to receive national health care award. * tom stangl * jul 31, 2026 * 0. Nolato Contour will be honored as a 2026 Rosie Award winner by Health Rosetta during RosettaFest 2026, a national gathering of employers, benefits advisors and clinicians set for July 29-31 at the Gaylord Opryland Resort in Nashville, Tennessee. The award will be presented July 30. The Baldwin manufacturer, which employs 358 people at its polymer material design and manufacturing plant, will be recognized for the fourth consecutive year for building a health plan that outperforms the market on cost, quality and employee experience. The Health Rosetta ecosystem covers more than 10,000 employer and public-sector health plans nationwide. This year, more than 2,000 plans were evaluated, 182 advanced as finalists and 88 were ultimately named Rosie Award winners, according to Health Rosetta. Rosie Award winners are chosen using three measures: a score on Health Rosetta's Plan Grader benchmark, how strategically a company reinvests its Health Rosetta Dividend, savings generated through better plan design, back into its workforce and community, and a willingness to share what has worked with other employers. Nolato Contour Director of Human Resources April Robelia said the recognition reflects the company's approach to employee benefits. "We're proud to be recognized as a Rosie Award winner for the fourth consecutive year because it reinforces that putting employees first is the right investment," Robelia said. "Our goal has been to provide benefits that support the health and well-being of our workforce while delivering long-term value." For employees and their families, the recognition translates into easier access to care, benefit dollars that go further and a benefits package built around their lives, according to Health Rosetta. In a competitive job market, company officials said that approach helps Nolato Contour attract talent while supporting the employees who already work there. Nolato Contour's health plan was designed in partnership with Health Rosetta Advisor Kristi Cherney of Alera Group. Cherney said the company has been intentional about building a plan that gives employees access to high-value providers, onsite clinic support and a strategy focused on better health outcomes. Nolato Contour is also part of the ThriveTogether Collaborative Health Plan, a community-based employer collaboration curated by Alera Group that brings employers, advisors, providers and care partners together to improve access and simplify navigation for patients. Nolato Contour is part of the global Nolato Group and specializes in developing and manufacturing advanced polymer products for the medical technology and pharmaceutical industries.
