IP telephony, domains of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, as well as servers that provided electronic document management for the structure remain blocked.
The website of the Russian Ministry of Defense could not withstand the consequences of a cyber attack by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. The services are not working for 24 hours. The press service of the Main Intelligence Directorate reported this on Tuesday, March 5.
“The Ministry of Defense of the aggressor state could not cope with the consequences of a cyber attack by the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry. As of March 5, the official website of the enemy’s law enforcement agency is still down,” the message said.
The Main Intelligence Directorate noted that IP telephony, domains of the Russian Ministry of Defense, as well as servers that provided electronic document management for the structure remained blocked.
GUR representative Andrey Yusov told the telethon that these are significant amounts of data.
“We are talking about both the personal data of the leadership of the Russian Ministry of Defense and important information in the context of the software, which would allow such operations to continue. Of course, we are not talking about the complete destruction of their digital infrastructure, but these are significant achievements. This is an important database that will allow ongoing actions on a larger scale,” he said.
We remind you that the day before the Main Intelligence Directorate conducted a large-scale DDoS attack on the servers of the Russian Ministry of Defense.
Recently, the largest Internet portal in Russia, Mail.ru, was successfully attacked by Ukrainian hackers from the IT Army of Ukraine. The email service has completely stopped working.
