România, țintă a unei campanii de spionaj cibernetic. Atacul, atribuit unor hackeri asociați cu Rusia

Romania has been targeted by a cyber espionage campaign attributed to the BlueDelta group, linked to Russian hackers. The operation, which took place from late September 2025 to early April 2026, focused on government and diplomatic organizations in Romania, Spain, and Turkey. Attackers utilized seemingly legitimate Microsoft Word documents with macros to deceive recipients. Insikt Group suggests that BlueDelta is state-sponsored and has refined its techniques over time. The backdoor HOOKEDGE is considered a direct successor to HEADLACE, indicating a continuation of espionage activities against European entities, particularly those related to NATO and former Soviet states.
