In their Facebook post, the group mocked the Philippine Navy’s cybersecurity, citing the use of weak passwords such as “passw0rd.” According to their claims, they allegedly exfiltrated over 15GB of confidential documents spanning from 2020 to 2025. The stolen data allegedly includes highly sensitive intelligence on Navy officials and personnel, with over 1,000 high-value individuals fully exposed.

The group claims that this is more than just a data leak, calling it a “complete operational compromise” of the Philippine Navy’s internal communications and security structure.
Deep Web Konek has been alerted to the alleged breach and is currently conducting its own verification and analysis. The DWK Breach Notification Team has also alerted the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) regarding the incident to ensure proper response and mitigation efforts.
At the time of writing, the Philippine Navy has yet to issue an official statement regarding the incident. It remains unclear whether immediate mitigation measures have been implemented or if affected personnel have been informed of the breach.
