MOSCOW, December 2. /TASS/. Foreign special services are preparing to carry out massive cyber attacks starting from December 5 aimed at destabilizing Russia’s financial system, the Federal Security Service said on its website on Friday.
The goal of the cyber attacks is also to destroy the
activity of "a range of major Russian banks," according to the FSB.
The servers and command centers for carrying out these
cyber attacks are located in the Netherlands and are owned by Ukraine’s hosting
company BlazingFast.
The cyber attacks are expected to be accompanied by mass
SMS and provocative publications in social networks or blogs about "a
crisis in the Russian credit and financial system, bankruptcy and withdrawal of
licenses of leading federal and regional banks."
"The campaign is directed against several dozen
Russian cities," the FSB stressed.
The FSB is carrying out the necessary measures to
neutralize the threats to Russia’s economic and information security and
documenting the forthcoming campaign, it said.
