Ukraine has launched a massive cyberattack against ATMs of Russian banks, the cyber operation began on July 23.
“This is an opportune moment to fully implement the Kremlin’s long-desired ‘import substitution’ in the form of wooden abacuses, paper savings books, and cave paintings for accounting.” reported the KyivPost. “In Russia, it has already been acknowledged that the widespread disruption of online services is the result of an attack by “politically motivated hackers.” Ukrainian intelligence told us that the attack is ongoing and far from over.”
A Ukrainian intelligence source told Kyiv Post that the attack is described as “gaining momentum”. The hacking campaign is part of the ongoing cyber operation amid the broader conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The list of hacked Russian banks includes Dom.RF, VTB Bank, Alfa-Bank, Sberbank, Raiffeisen Bank, RSHB Bank, Rosbank, Gazprombank, Tinkoff Bank and iBank.
