Statement on the malicious behavior of the Russian Federation in cyberspace

03.05.2024

Poland stands in solidarity with Germany and with Czechia following the malicious cyber campaign against their political parties and democratic institutions. Both countries have publicly attributed the responsibility to the Advanced Persistent Threat 28 controlled by the Russian Federation.

Poland, being also among targets of the APT 28, strongly condemns the repetitive and unacceptable malicious cyber campaigns conducted by the Russian actors.

Our position is expressed in the statements of the European Union and NATO . We call on all States, particularly Russia, private sector and individuals to adhere to the principles of responsible behavior in cyberspace.

Given the continuous rise of the cyber threats, Poland is committed to protecting national critical infrastructure, building resilience and bolstering cyber defenses.
