Russian Cyber Operations

The Justice Department arraigned Ukrainian national Victoria Eduardovna Dubranova, 33, on a second federal indictment this week, alleging she aided Russian‑backed groups CyberArmyofRussia_Reborn (CARR) and NoName057(16) in dozens of cyberattacks on U.S. critical infrastructure. The State Department’s Rewards for Justice program offered up to $10 million for information on others tied to NoName057(16), as officials detailed attacks that damaged U.S. water systems and a 2024 breach at a Los Angeles meat plant; Dubranova pleaded not guilty and faces trials in February and April 2026.
