Cyber attack expected today


 

According to CNA’s trusted sources, government institutions are keeping a careful eye on the situation surrounding the warning issued by Odyssey Cybersecurity over a potential cyberattack on Cyprus.
“We stay alert for any developments. The developments are being closely monitored by state agencies. There is no attack,” a competent source told CNA.
According to Odyssey, “we have observed that a hacking group known as LulzSec Black has publicly declared its intent to target the critical infrastructure of Cyprus”.
“The attack appears to be politically motivated, citing Cyprus’ relationship with Israel as a factor behind the upcoming cyber offensive” it adds.
A planned cyberattack targeting the infrastructure of Cyprus is scheduled for 17th October 2024, today, it says.
The threat, it adds, is further heightened by the involvement of the group “Moroccan Soldiers,” who have expressed their support for LulzSec Black in these operations.
The targeted systems include Cypriot infrastructure, specifically government, financial, and critical services, which may be at risk of service disruptions, data theft, or system compromises, it notes.
