War Fallout: Ukrainians Steal Data from Russian Water Supply Company

According to reports, Ukraine allegedly compromised Rosvodokanal, one of Russia’s largest private companies, and seized 1.5TB of data. The operation is believed to be carried out by the Ukrainian attack group Blackjack and part of continued cyberwarfare between Ukraine and Russia. The Interfax-Ukraine news agency stated that the Ukrainian attackers encrypted 6,000 computers and deleted more than 50TB of data, including internal document management system, corporate emails, cyber protection services, and backups.

Rosvodokanal supplies water to 7 million consumers and is part of the Moscow-based Alfa Group, one of Russia’s largest privately-held conglomerates. For more, visit Cybernews.
