Russian defense firm hacked by Anonymous

Following massive cyber attacks on Russia's government websites and businesses believed to be supporting the Kremlin, Anonymous has hit Russia's military force itself with the drone hack.

The hack, reported in a tweet, allowed the Anonymous operative with the Twitter handle @Youanonspider, to obtain classified documents bearing information about Russia's drone plans and tactics, which the hacktivist collective hoped would "help the war to end as soon as possible":

As a sneak peek to the full hack, Anonymous shared a few images of the loot. One showed the list of the largest exporters and competitors of the country in terms of innovations in the unmanned vehicle industry.

Another image is a "technical and commercial offer" from Rosoboronexport for the unmanned aerial vehicle "Orion-E." The hacktivist group also included in the tweet a link containing "military plans and documents collected from various Russian military companies and government sources."

@Youranonspider reportedly said that:

the documents we shared include the presentation, planning and tactics of Russian unmanned aerial vehicle manufacturers and various weapons manufacturers.

Anonymous hacktivist group also hacked over 300 sites of Russian government agencies, state media and banks in February.
