Hackers bring down Poland’s train network in massive cyber attack

Published

on

Polish intelligence agencies are currently conducting an investigation into a cyberattack that targeted the country’s railway infrastructure, according to reports from Polish media.

The incident, which occurred overnight, involved hackers gaining unauthorized access to railway frequencies, resulting in disruptions to train services in the northwestern region of Poland. The Polish Press Agency (PAP) revealed that during the attack, the hackers broadcasted Russia’s national anthem and a speech by President Vladimir Putin.

Poland holds significant importance as a transit hub for the transportation of Western weaponry to Ukraine, making it an area of strategic interest in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict.

On the day of the incident, hackers transmitted a signal that forced an emergency halt of train operations near the city of Szczecin, causing approximately 20 trains to come to a standstill. Fortunately, railway services were swiftly restored within hours, preventing any prolonged disruption.

Investigation underway

Stanislaw Zaryn, a senior security official, confirmed that Poland’s internal security service, known as ABW, is actively investigating the incident. Zaryn emphasized that no possibilities are being ruled out at this stage of the inquiry.

“We know that for some months there have been attempts to destabilize the Polish state,” Mr. Zaryn stated, “Such attempts have been undertaken by the Russian Federation in conjunction with Belarus.”

This cyberattack follows a trend of increased cyber threats and attacks in the context of the Russia-Ukraine war. Several Western nations have called for heightened cybersecurity measures as the conflict unfolds. Experts have also suggested that Russia might be employing cyberattacks in Ukraine as a means to test and demonstrate its hacking capabilities.

In response to these allegations, Russia has categorically denied any involvement and dismissed the accusations as “Russophobic.”
