MoD probes claims Russian hackers stole files on bases

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has launched an investigation into claims that Russian hackers stole sensitive files containing information about RAF and Royal Navy bases in the UK. The files, which were allegedly published on the dark web, are said to include details about the locations and activities of these military installations. The MoD has confirmed that they are aware of the reports and are taking the matter seriously. They have not yet confirmed the authenticity of the files or the extent of the potential breach. However, the incident has raised concerns about the security of critical infrastructure and the ongoing threat of cyber attacks from state-sponsored actors. The investigation is still ongoing, and the MoD has not provided any further details on the nature of the files or the potential impact of the breach. The incident highlights the need for continued vigilance and robust cybersecurity measures to protect sensitive information and national security.
