Researchers say Russian military intelligence hackers may be behind December cyberattacks in Poland
Russian military intelligence, identified as the Sandworm group, launched a significant cyberattack targeting Poland's power grid in late December. Employing new 'DynoWiper' malware designed to erase data, the hackers aimed to cripple critical energy infrastructure. However, Polish defenses successfully repelled the intrusion, preventing any disruption, a decade after Sandworm's historic Ukraine grid attack.
