"Russian Satellite Telecom Dozor Allegedly Hit by Hackers"
Hackers aligned with the Private Military Corporation (PMC) Wagner attacked Dozor-Teleport, a satellite communications provider used by Russia's Ministry of Defense and security services. Attackers targeted the infrastructure of the satellite communication provider, causing damage to user terminals. Herm1t, a pro-Ukrainian hacker and malware historian, says that attackers could have significantly damaged client equipment and the network core. According to the Internet Intelligence Research Lab's Internet Outage Detection and Analysis (IODA) project, the Dozor network went offline for over 10 hours. Russia's Ministry of Defense, ships of the Northern Fleet, the Federal Security Service (FSB), Rosatom, and other organizations use Dozor-Teleport. Users on a Telegram channel managed by Herm1t observed that the attack resembles Russia's cyberattack on Viasat's satellites.
