Russian Hackers Target Critical Infrastructure in NATO Countries

Russian-linked hacker groups have been attacking critical infrastructure in NATO countries since late 2024, causing disruptions and incidents. Targets include crematoriums, wineries, water treatment plants, and industrial facilities. The attacks have resulted in power outages, water supply disruptions, product spoilage, and even evacuations. Groups like CARR and Z-Pentest are believed to be involved, with the U.S. attributing some attacks to Russia's GRU. Despite warnings, the hackers intend to continue their activities, targeting even hospitals and water supply systems.
