Profile
ROSATOM, also known as the State Atomic Energy Corporation ROSATOM, is a Russian state nuclear energy corporation. The organisation is headquartered in Russia. As a state-owned entity, it operates under the authority of the Russian government. Its core activities involve the nuclear energy sector, specifically the management of nuclear infrastructure and the handling of internal project reports and testing environments.
The organisation's role includes oversight of nuclear infrastructure and handling of internal project reports and testing environments. These functions place ROSATOM at the centre of Russia's nuclear energy activities. Its state-owned status further defines its operational context within the national industrial landscape.
ROSATOM has been the target of multiple cyber incidents that illustrate its exposure to threat actors. In March 2022, the hacktivist group Anonymous breached the corporation, exfiltrating gigabytes of internal data and conducting related disruptive actions. In February 2022, the group AgainstTheWest claimed responsibility for a breach that exposed internal project reports and testing environments. In January 2016, the Turk Hack Team carried out attacks that involved defacement, data leaks, and DDoS against ROSATOM among other targets.
