Attack claimed by pro-Ukraine hackers reportedly erases a third of Russian court case archive


About a third of the case file archive of Pravosudiye — Russia's national electronic court filing system — was deleted in a previously reported cyberattack, auditors said. A pro-Ukrainian group has claimed the intrusion.

The attack was claimed by the pro-Ukraine hacking group BO Team, which has previously collaborated with Ukrainian military intelligence in operations against Russian entities. Local media reported that the FSB's actions were triggered by concerns about the legality of the budget funds allocated to the project. The full impact of such attacks is often hard to verify due to limited publicity from affected companies and authorities, but cases like the Pravosudiye hack reveal the potential long-term consequences.
