Nebula, an anti-Putin hacktivist group, claimed a cyberattack on Russian election systems, targeting critical infrastructure for the upcoming Russian election. In their dark web post, the threat actor posted a message aimed directly at the Moscow Government, encrypting several systems and leaving a “big” demand for ransom.
The message, originating from the self-proclaimed “Mothership,” urged the government to reconsider its actions amidst the election season. Nebula emphasized the importance of resisting what they deemed a “sham” election and called upon the people to unite and fight against it.
