"Germany's Tank Support Met With Russian Cyberattacks"

Pro-Russian hackers took notice of Germany's decision to send 14 Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine. The number of cyberattacks on German targets jumped by 35 percent after Chancellor Olaf Scholz agreed to provide tanks to Ukraine. According to the cyber deception company Lupovis, German targets were bombarded by pro-Russian hacktivists and low-skilled threat actors. The data collected by Lupovis is contextual threat intelligence derived from the company's Internet-based decoys and sensors. While the research indicates that the attackers are likely less skilled and rely on automated tools to scan the web for vulnerabilities, human operators take over once flaws are discovered. This article continues to discuss the Russia-based cyberattacks against targets in Germany triggered by Berlin's decision to supply Ukraine with Leopard 2 tanks.
