The volume of attacks on telecom operators in the Russian Federation has decreased
It follows from them that 2.5 thousand systems were affected by interceptions last year, almost half as many as in 2021. In 2020, the problem affected 3.6 thousand, and in 2019 - 4.7 thousand systems.
Last spring, after the outbreak of hostilities in Ukraine, experts recorded several large-scale incidents of interception of traffic from Russian Internet providers by Ukrainian operators. For example, Lurenet pulled the traffic of networks owned by Rostelecom, MegaFon, Vimpelcom, MTS and Transtelecom (TTK), among others. Due to the attack, services based on these networks were unavailable from different countries for ten hours (see Kommersant of April 24, 2022). Then the incident affected 146 autonomous systems. Vimpelcom, MegaFon and Transtelecom declined to comment.
