The Gentlemen come calling as Nutex confirms sensitive data theft
Ransomware crew threatens publication while healthcare biz assesses which records escaped
Nutex Health, a US hospital operator, recently confirmed that its systems were breached, leading to the theft of sensitive data such as patient, employee, provider, business, and financial information. The company disclosed the intrusion on August 24 under Item 8.01 of Form 8-K and now reports the incident under Item 1.05, the section for material cybersecurity incidents.
Nutex has not identified the intruders but The Gentlemen, a ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation, claimed responsibility and threatened to publish the stolen data. The Gentlemen is a primarily Russian-speaking operation, reportedly emerging in mid-2025 after former Qilin affiliates split from the original gang.
