#BREAKNG #ESETresearch identified the wiper #DynoWiper used in an attempted disruptive cyberattack against the 🇵🇱 Polish energy sector on Dec 29, 2025. At this point, no successful disruption is known, but the malware’s design clearly indicates destructive intent. 1/5

#ESETresearch attributes the attack to the 🇷🇺 Russia‑aligned #Sandworm APT group with medium confidence, based on strong overlaps in behavior and TTPs with multiple earlier Sandworm-linked wiper operations investigated by our team. 2/5

The attack struck during peak winter and the 10‑year anniversary of Sandworm’s 2015 attack on 🇺🇦 Ukraine’s power grid - the first malware-driven blackout, leaving ~230,000 people without electricity. 3/5

#ESET detects DynoWiper as Win32/KillFiles.NMO. Customers of our private ESET Threat Intelligence APT reports have already received additional technical details and IOCs to support rapid detection and response. IoC: 4EC3C90846AF6B79EE1A5188EEFA3FD21F6D4CF6 4/5

We continue to investigate the incident and broader implications. As new evidence or links to additional Sandworm activity emerge, we will share further updates to help defenders protect critical sectors.  5/5
