Hackers Compromised Systems of Belarus’ Largest Chemical Company
INCIDENT
The hacker group "Cyberpartisans" claims to have hacked the computers and security systems of Belarus' largest chemical company, Grodno Azot. The hackers promise to restore the data when the plant's employees arrested during protests against the results of the 2020 presidential election, as well as 75 political prisoners with the worst health conditions, are released.
The hackers claim to have taken control of the company's website, email, hundreds of work computers, servers, security systems, and surveillance cameras. The boiler room has also been disrupted.
The Grodno Azot website has been down since April 17. “The situation has not affected, and will not affect, the production activities of the enterprise,” the offical company said.
