Posted on October 9, 2024 by Dissent

Dmytro Basmat reports:

Ukrainian court has sentenced in absentia two members of the Russian security service-backed (FSB) hacker group “Armageddon” for having carried out more than 5,000 cyberattacks against Ukrainian institutions and critical infrastructure, Ukraine’s State Security Service (SBU) said on Oct. 8.

The unnamed hackers previously worked as SBU employees in occupied Crimea before voluntarily joining the FSB following Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014, the SBU said.
