STB was among the media outlets affected by the June 27 2017 cyber attack that leveraged compromised updates to the M.E.Doc accounting software.
The attack deployed ransomware and wiper components, notably NotPetya, which disrupted STB’s operations alongside those of government, financial, critical infrastructure, and commercial entities.
Attackers exploited supply‑chain vulnerabilities to propagate the malicious payload, encrypting systems and demanding Bitcoin payments.
Forensic analysis linked the incident to earlier campaigns such as XData and Chthonic and suggested involvement by financially motivated actors with limited ransomware development skills, possibly posing as Ukrainian speakers.
The episode highlighted STB’s exposure to significant cyber threats and underscored the broader risk faced by Ukrainian media organisations during that period.
