Innovation in action

The mobile operator Kyivstar does not confirm the information about the months-long access of hackers “inside” the company to the personal data of subscribers, and their leakage.

About it reported on Facebook, company representative Irina Lelichenko.

“The official investigation into the cyber attack on the Kyivstar network, which occurred on December 12, 2023, is still ongoing and various versions are being considered and voiced, but until the official completion of the investigation, none of them can be considered final. All information about the progress of the cyber attack investigation is available on the official website SBU, which is directly involved in this process.

“No facts of leakage of personal data of subscribers were discovered during the investigation,” Lelichenko said.

According to her, now the Kyivstar network is operating as usual and provides subscribers with all the basic basic services

“Kyivstar has already applied additional measures for cyber protection, in particular, strengthened access control, introduced additional control systems for servers and workstations, and plans to take the next steps to strengthen cyber security,” the company added.

Let us remind you:

The head of the Cyber ​​Security Department of the Security Service of Ukraine, Ilya Vityuk, said in an interview with Reuters that Russian hackers penetrated the system of the Ukrainian telecommunications operator Kyivstar at least in May last year, although a large-scale attack occurred on December 12.
