russian hackers affiliated with the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the russian Armed Forces tried to launch a cyberattack on Ukraine's critical infrastructure. This was stated by the State Special Communications Service, UNN reports.
Details
It is noted that the government's computer emergency response team CERT-UA exposed plans by Sandworm hackers to attack about 20 Ukrainian energy, heat and water supply companies in ten regions of the country.
The Sandworm group, whose activities are associated with the General Staff of the russian Armed Forces (formerly known as the GRU), is one of the most active and dangerous
The attackers used supply chain attacks to gain initial access. As a result, Sandworm wanted to disable the equipment of information and communication systems, which could have caused Ukraine more damage against the backdrop of russia's spring missile attacks on critical infrastructure
This attack is evidence that russia continues to use cyberattacks as a weapon against Ukraine. In particular, the Sandworm group continues to actively attack Ukraine
Recall
The State Service for Special Communications of Ukraine has warned of the activation of a hacker group that is trying to gain access to the computers of the Ukrainian military in order to steal documents and messenger data.
