What the data says

Nitrogen ranks #112 of the 122 groups profiled here, with 29 claimed victims (0.1% of all claims we track).

Its earliest reliably dated claim in our data is 25 October 2024; the latest is 19 October 2026.

It posted 1 claim in the last 30 days, against 0 in the 30 days before. Small counts swing a lot and leak sites post in batches.

Its claims lean toward Manufacturing: 46% of its sector-labelled claims, against 18% across all groups (2.5× the usual share).

Claims per month, by the date our trackers first saw them, so batches can land late. We have almost no collection from June 2025 to March 2026: an empty stretch there means we weren't looking, not that the group was idle. The current month is partial.
