Details
On February 3, information began to circulate online that Russian hackers from the Just Evil group had gained access to the US Army's systems and the Lithuanian Army's Ilias system.
The Lithuanian Armed Forces confirmed that on that day they had detected a suspicious login to one of the accounts of the distance learning system. After that, three servers hosting the Ilias system were shut down.
Lithuania's National Cyber Security Center, in close cooperation with the army, has launched an investigation, and the incident is currently considered a medium threat event,
