A dark web market known as Threat Market is listing 375TB of Lockheed Martin data, which it claims was provided by a group calling itself ‘APT Iran.’
Hackers are claiming to have stolen a trove of data belonging to Lockheed Martin, the world’s largest defense contractor and an American aerospace company. They are now selling it on the dark web.
The situation began on March 26, 2026, when a Telegram account linked to a dark web marketplace known as Threat Market, which posts in both Russian and English, claimed it had been approached by a group described as “APT IRAN.” According to the post, the group requested infrastructure support to sell what was described as 375 terabytes of data allegedly taken from Lockheed Martin.
The message further stated that direct access to the platform’s administrative panel had been granted to the APT IRAN group to facilitate the sale. It also referenced the use of cryptocurrency mixers to handle proceeds, a method often used to make payments harder to trace.
Three days later, on March 29, the same Telegram account announced that the entire 375TB of data was officially listed for sale. The listing advertised a “complete dump” with a stated value of roughly $374 million ($374,821,400) and an exclusive buyout price close to $600 million ($598,500,000). (more...)
