News emerged late Wednesday into Thursday that the company had been targeted by a group claiming affiliation to the PMC Wagner, the private military company run by Victor Prigozhin. The satellite company provides internet and other communication services that support state agencies such as Moscow’s main intelligence agency.Īlexander Anosov, the general director of the satellite company Dozor-Teleport CJSC and the first deputy general director of its parent company, Amtel-Svyaz, told a Russian information technology news outlet that the company was indeed infiltrated, and that preliminary information suggested that “infrastructure on the side of the cloud provider was compromised,” according to a Google translation.ĬomNews, the publication that reported Anosov’s confirmation, reported that it “may take up to to weeks to restore the network to full operation.” The story did not offer additional detail to the severity or scale of the attack but said more information would be published on Monday. The Russian satellite telecom company that hackers targeted this week in a claimed effort to support the Wagner paramilitary group confirmed the cyberattack on Friday, according to a Russian technology publication.
