Pro-Russia hacktivist group NoName057(16) is actively targeting Dutch organizations with large-scale distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. These attacks are causing significant access problems and service disruptions for targeted entities across both the public and private sectors in the Netherlands. The country's National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) has issued a warning about these ongoing cyber activities. The NCSC confirmed that the attacks also affect European organizations alongside Dutch ones.
The attacks are part of a broader campaign of cyber-attacks claimed by the hacktivist group. These persistent DDoS attacks aim to overwhelm the targeted organizations' systems with malicious traffic, rendering them inaccessible to legitimate users. The goal of these attacks appears to be the disruption of services and potentially the undermining of confidence in the targeted organizations. BleepingComputer reported on this campaign, highlighting the severity and widespread impact of these attacks.
The National Cyber Security Center (NCSC), part of the Dutch Ministry of Justice, released a statement acknowledging the situation. The statement mentioned that both public and private entities within the Netherlands are being targeted by these large-scale DDoS attacks. The NCSC continues to monitor the situation and is working to mitigate the impact of these attacks.
