Anonymous hacked Rosatom's website and started "leaking gigabytes of data"

Hackers of the group Anonymous hacked the site of the Rosatom State Atomiс Energy Corporation.

This is stated in the message of Anonymous on Twitter.

"Anonymous has hacked Rosatom's website and is starting to leak gigabytes of data. Links to data in the article. We can't post links because Twitter is sometimes mean to us," the statement said.

The "tweet" was published at 20:51 Kyiv time.

Earlier, hackers Anonymous hacked the database of Roskomnadzor.

On 26 February 2022, Anonymous, in their video, personally addressed Volodymyr Putin. They told him to stop attacking Ukraine. The hackers said they had declared war on the president of the country-aggressor; also, they addressed the world to "shut his mouth with his dirty money."

The same day, Anonymous hacked the website of the Russian Ministry of Defense. They leaked the database; information containing telephone numbers, e-mails, and names of its employees appeared on the Internet.

Later, Anonymous allegedly addressed the Russians on the Internet. The message said that on 3 March 2022, all their money would be transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The hackers also said that their actions had already caused significant damage to Russia and warned of a new "largest in the world" cyber attack.

On 3 March 2022, Russian media reported that citizens complained about the lack of money and problems with the currency withdrawal. Banks explained this by "high demand and complex logistics due to Western sanctions."

Bloomberg analyzed possible scenarios in connection to the increase of Russia's foreign debt. Thus, according to the company, Russia's foreign debt has already reached 150bn US dollars, and default may be announced on Wednesday.

Analysts at the US financial corporation Morgan Stanle predict a "Venezuelan-style" default in Russia in April.
