| Titolo | Allies Attribute Turla Espionage and Router Intrusions to Russia’s FSB Centre 16 |
| Contesto | The UK, France, the EU, and partner cyber agencies publicly attributed a broad cyber-espionage campaign to FSB Centre 16, linking the Russian intelligence unit to both the long-running Turla intrusion set and active exploitation of internet-facing routers and network devices. UK and allied authorities warned that the actor is scanning globally for poorly configured infrastructure, abusing default or weak SNMP credentials and known Cisco-related weaknesses such as Smart Install and web-management flaws to seize control of devices, with critical sectors including communications, defence, energy, financial services, government, and healthcare identified as high-risk targets. French authorities said entities in France, including ministries and organizations in the diplomatic, defence, justice, and technology sectors, were targeted and compromised using Turla tradecraft that has been active since at least 2004. The coordinated disclosures were accompanied by formal attribution statements from France and the EU, while the UK said EU member states and London also attributed the December 2025 attack on Poland’s energy grid to FSB Centre 16 and announced sanctions against 24 individuals and entities tied to Russian destructive cyber and hybrid operations. Defenders were urged to harden network devices by adopting SNMPv3, disabling legacy SNMP versions, enforcing strong unique passwords, and restricting access to management interfaces. |
