Romanian energy supplier Electrica Group is contending with a ransomware attack that has disrupted its operations. While the assault did not compromise critical systems, it has caused temporary customer service interruptions as security measures intensified to protect operational and personal data. Electrica is working with authorities to mitigate and understand the attack. The incident's severity is accentuated by Electrica's significant position in Romania's electricity distribution and energy services sector, with over 3.8 million customers. The attack, linked to pro-Russian groups, is seen as retaliatory against Romania's political stance and follows a series of cyberattacks that targeted the country's election systems.
