DDoS Attack on Gazprombank Affects Customers

Russian users have reported difficulties accessing services at Gazprombank, one of the country’s largest privately owned banks, following an alleged cyberattack by Ukraine’s military intelligence agency.

Data from several website outage tracking services indicates that Gazprombank customers have complained about being unable to make transactions or pay bills through the bank’s app or website. Earlier this week, Ukraine’s military intelligence agency (HUR) claimed responsibility for launching a powerful distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack on Gazprombank, disrupting its online and mobile banking services.
