Hackers associated with Ukraine announced that the website of the Moscow City Bureau of Technical Inventory (MosgorBTI) had been hacked. This institution stores data on real estate in the capital and its owners. The MosgorBTI denies the fact of the leak, claiming that the hackers were only able to gain access to the publication of materials on the site. In response, the hackers released part of the database.

The publication “Important Stories” drew attention to the hack . The message, which is still posted on the website, claims that the infrastructure and databases of the Moscow City BTI have been destroyed. The hackers claim that they obtained information about the places of residence of Moscow civil servants, politicians, military and intelligence officers and transferred it to the Ukrainian defense forces .

The statement contains links to sudo rm -RF channels: their Twitter says that they are “IT specialists working for peace in Ukraine.” This account was previously mentioned in connection with the largest cyberattack on Rutube in May 2022. Then the video service did not work for two days. This hacker group also took responsibility for hacking the Skolkovo Foundation system website at the end of May 2023. The fund then stated that the hackers who gained access to information systems and resources introduced themselves as the “Ukrainian cyber front.”

MosgorBTI is a state budgetary organization, it records information about real estate and buildings of the city and conducts technical accounting. The BTI stores boundary and floor plans of buildings, technical passports, information about wear and tear, information about communications and other documents.

The institution's website is unavailable at the time of publication. The bureau's Telegram channel states that there was no leak - the hackers were only able to gain access to the publication of materials on the site. “Information about real estate objects and owners is stored in a separate database, reliably protected. The site is only a channel for ordering documents and is not directly connected to the institution’s information systems. At the moment, technical specialists are dealing with the incident,” said the Moscow City Bureau of Technical Information.

In response to this, hackers posted part of the data allegedly stolen from the bureau’s database on a Telegram channel. The screenshot attached to one of the messages shows the addresses of military units located in Moscow. In addition, they published several screenshots confirming the destruction of the institution’s electronic infrastructure.
