Misspelled “patriots” in that headline, tankies.

”Ukrainian cybercriminals"
Hot take; damaging a nation’s ability to perpetrate a genocide is not a crime.
Cold take
Most of the mentioning in the article uses “hacktivists” though.
And cybercriminals might refer to separate blackhat hackers too.

The attack destroyed over 47 TB of critical data, blocked internal systems, and effectively halted the plant’s operations.
?? Backups exist for a reason
All information on the manufacturer’s servers has been destroyed, including 10 terabytes of backup materials.
The numbers might not add up, but it’s possible the hackers had access to the (insufficient, and badly secured) backups to delete them too.
Let’s hope they don’t work
Sick 🤘
Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
I almost involuntarily vomited
I’m glad! Slava Ukraini, scumbag :D 🇺🇦
I genuinely can’t figure our why would anyone still support imperialism in 2025 instead of freedom. Imagine vomitting because you want to be enslaved and freedom sounds unacceptable to you
Then go Russia where you wont have to read that. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦

Ти сука. Слава Україні.
Powerful! 😅
I prefer the term Cyber Buccaneers .
This is actually pretty interesting. Russians are typically more tech savvy than you would expect. A factory full of them and this still happened.
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.
Russians are typically more tech savvy than you would expect.
Well, as someone living in Russia, I don’t really feel this so much
you’re literally on lemmy
This shouldn’t be relevant but actually yea, ax has a good point. Plenty of people don’t really understand things that aren’t part of a big brand online.
they are good at hacking and spreading propaganda via troll farms, putin probably employs more of them than other countries do,.
LOL
Hey look, there’s one now. What’s worse is I don’t think putin even cuts them a check.
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
than you would expect.
The cause might be somewhere in your expectations…
We need to learn from it.
Similar attacks may be possible against our industry.
What is your industry?
Recycling comic book characters into movies
considered russia has done the same in various forms on different countries.
