    Misspelled “patriots” in that headline, tankies.

    ”Ukrainian cybercriminals"

    Hot take; damaging a nation’s ability to perpetrate a genocide is not a crime.

      Most of the mentioning in the article uses “hacktivists” though.

      And cybercriminals might refer to separate blackhat hackers too.

      Cold take

    The attack destroyed over 47 TB of critical data, blocked internal systems, and effectively halted the plant’s operations.

    This is actually pretty interesting. Russians are typically more tech savvy than you would expect. A factory full of them and this still happened.

      Their need to be more tech savvy is to avoid paying high taxes on electronics, so they have to cobble together working machines from spare parts.

      They are good at getting things working, but they are not good at getting them working well.

      it depends if the one that’s tech savvy enough to prevent that it’s paid enough for his job, or if the money allocated for that went to fund the yacht holidays of some general

      Well, as someone living in Russia, I don’t really feel this so much

      There are Russians who are more tech savvy than you would expect, but in average they’re just like the rest.

      One would expect that in Russia, like everywhere, the kind of people hired to manage the IT infrastructure in most companies are not the “hacker elite” (unless the company gets one purely by luck)

      The only shocking thing here is that a military manufacturer - which one would expect to try a bit harder to find the kind of systems manager that can harden their internal systems - seems to have not properly hardenned/segregated their systems.

      Then again, maybe they’re not totally incompetent and do have their mission critical stuff air-gapped and the damage done by the Ukranian hackers is less impactful than the headline implies. From the outside it’s hard to tell.

      they are good at hacking and spreading propaganda via troll farms, putin probably employs more of them than other countries do,.

      The cause might be somewhere in your expectations…

    We need to learn from it.

    Similar attacks may be possible against our industry.
