Ukrainian Hacktivists Wipe Russian ISP Nodex: A Cyber Swipe Left
Ukrainian hacktivists from the Ukrainian Cyber Alliance pulled off a daring cyber heist, breaching Nodex’s network and leaving behind a digital ghost town. They exfiltrated sensitive data, wiped systems clean, and left Nodex frantically rebooting routers. The Russian ISP is now racing to restore its network from backups.
Hot Take:

In a plot twist worthy of a cyber-thriller, they not only stole sensitive documents but left Nodex’s systems emptier than a popcorn bucket after a Marvel movie marathon. Meanwhile, Nodex is left scrambling to reboot its virtual world, proving that in the realm of cyber warfare, sometimes the best offense is a really, really great hack.”
