Hackers Attack Russian Oil Company
Via Kommersant, "Russia's Daily Online".
Late on Tuesday night, unknown individuals attacked the server of Surgutneftegaz oil company. They sent emails from a mailbox allegedly located on the company’s website, claiming that its CEOs were arrested. Surgutneftegaz disproved that information.More here.
Experts do not understand what the hackers’ real purpose was; the latter either wanted to put psychological pressure on the company, forcing it to disclose some information, or they were simply checking spam’s impact on the stock market. There had been similar attempts to manipulate the market before.
