Chien says Symantec is also seeing the wiper in Lithuania, "but at this time it isn't clear if these are distinct organizations." These could be infections of Ukrainian companies with international offices. Symantec hasn't seen attacks on companies based outside of Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org

"We haven't yet documented the full attack chain," Chien says, "but it is clear in some organizations they had credentialed access already." Aligns with what ESET tweeted about Active Directory access. — PolitiTweet.org

Symantec's Eric Chien tells me: "We are seeing the wiper across multiple organizations in different sectors in the Ukraine including finance and government organizations. The wiper uses a legitimate driver to gain low level hard disk access to wipe data." — PolitiTweet.org

This thread makes several good points, including: * Sophisticated, destructive cyberattack on West by 🇷🇺 would be easy to attribute, which 🇷🇺 may want to avoid; and * Disruptive attacks don't require elite capabilities; thus: * 🇷🇺 may instead prod criminal proxies to do them — PolitiTweet.org

@dsszzi SBU site now working for me, while Rada and MFA are still down, and KMU (Cabinet of Ministers) is back down. This see-sawing between outage and restoration makes it seem like the attackers are trying to overwhelm the mitigation efforts. — PolitiTweet.org

Privatbank is working for me now, although the "Human Verification" page doesn't remember me when I refresh, which suggests a very aggressive bot-checking feature that's probably smart. But now the website of Ukraine's SBU (their FBI) is also down. https://t.co/TmdikUdpIU — PolitiTweet.org
