Russia's invasion of Ukraine on Thursday (2/24) has attracted the attention of many parties, including hacker groups from around the world. The hacker who calls himself an anonymous hacker claims to have hacked into government systems, Russian banks and the state broadcaster, RT.
Hacking groups such as Anonymous and Cyber ​​Partisans have claimed responsibility for the cyber attack.
"DDoS alone will not bring down a regime. Putin, who uses squads of hackers and troll soldiers against Western democracy, is drinking his own bitter medicine," Germany's Anonymous group said in a blog post, citing the Independent, Tuesday (3/1).
The anonymous hacker group said it would not attack critical infrastructure such as nuclear power plants or traffic control systems in Russia. This step is intended so that Russian citizens are not disturbed.
On the one hand, they admit that securing Ukraine's digital system infrastructure is a priority for Russia's notorious cyberattacks. This group of hackers will continue to keep Russian hackers from moving.
"They also want to keep the Russian "cyber apparatus" busy with defensive work so they can't do anything in Ukraine or any Western country," the hacker's representative said.
Previously hackers scrambled maritime data affiliated with Putin's luxury yacht. Hackers were able to get Putin's Yacht dubbed "Graceful." Then hackers make provoking words in it.
Bloomberg journalist Ryan Gallagher initially reported this cyber-attack. He said the hijacking of Putin's luxury ship.
