... The Russian state-sponsored APT named Sandworm was behind the December 2025 cyberattack targeting Poland's power grid, cybersecurity firm ESET reports.

Poland's energy infrastructure, including two combined heat and power (CHP) plants and a renewable energy management system, was targeted by hackers on December 29-30, and Polish officials blamed Russia for the assault.
