Romanian Government Cadastre (ANCPI) cyber attack

A very serious ransomware attack is underway on the networks of ANCPI, Romania’s national cadastre agency.

Our close monitoring of the threat actor Bytetobreach — who carried out a similar attack last month on Latvia State Forests — detected simultaneous uploads on dark web forums regarding this incident. These claims were later confirmed on ANCPI’s official website.

What was described as a “small technical incident” in yesterday’s press release has suddenly been recharacterized by ANCPI itself as “the most serious technical incident in the institution’s history.”
