They include project plans, software descriptions, instructions, internal emails, and transfer documents from the company.<\/p>\n<p>The takeover of railroad networks and power plants are also part of a training seminar held by Vulkan to train hackers.<\/p>\n<p>The leak also exposes the company&#8217;s close links to the FSB, Russia&#8217;s domestic spy agency, the GOU and GRU, the respective operational and intelligence divisions of the armed forces, and the SVR, Russia&#8217;s foreign intelligence organization.<\/p>\n<p>The documents, which were leaked by an unnamed source to a German reporter working for the S\u00fcddeutsche Zeitung at the start of Russia&#8217;s invasion of Ukraine, have since been analyzed by global media outlets including The Washington Post and German media outlets Paper Trail Media and Der Spiegel.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spiegel.de\/politik\/deutschland\/vulkan-files-enthuellungen-wie-putins-cybersoldaten-den-krieg-ins-internet-tragen-a-bb241ad9-a9c3-422e-af57-ffe59986a1d8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Spiegel report<\/a> (in German), Vulkan has developed tools that allow state hackers to efficiently prepare cyberattacks, filter Internet traffic, and spread propaganda and disinformation on a massive scale.<\/p>\n<p>The Spiegel report notes that analysts from Google reportedly discovered a connection between Vulkan and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darkreading.com\/threat-intelligence\/cozy-bear-emerges-from-hibernation-to-hack-eu-ministries\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hacker group Cozy Bear<\/a> years ago; the group has successfully penetrated systems of the US Department of Defense in the past.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"regular-text\">Amezit, Skan-V Programs Revealed<\/h2>\n<p>One offensive cyber program described in the documents is internally codenamed &#8220;Amezit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The wide-ranging platform is designed to enable attacks on critical infrastructure facilities in addition to total information control over specific areas.<\/p>\n<p>The program&#8217;s goals include using special software to derail trains or paralyze airport computers, but it was not clear from the materials whether the program is currently being used against Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Another project, called &#8220;Skan-V,&#8221; is supposed to automate cyberattacks and make them much easier to plan.<\/p>\n<p>Whether and where the programs were used cannot be traced, but the documents prove that the programs were ordered, tested, and paid for.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People should know the dangers this poses,&#8221; shared the anonymous source who leaked the docs to the media. The Russian invasion of Ukraine had motivated the source to make the documents public.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"regular-text\">As the Sandworm Turns<\/h2>\n<p>A trail also leads to the state hacker group Sandworm, one of the most dangerous advanced persistent threats (APTs) in the world, responsible for some of the most serious cyberattacks of recent years. For instance, the threat actor has been targeting the Ukrainian capital since as far back as December 2016 when it used the malware tool Industroyer to cause a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darkreading.com\/attacks-breaches\/-russian-group-sandworm-s-attempt-to-disrupt-ukraine-power-grid-foiled\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">temporary power outage in Kyiv<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Until now, it was not known that the group used tools from private companies.<\/p>\n<p>Sandworm has previously been linked to GRU.<\/p>\n<p>Since the start of the war, at least five Russian, state-sponsored or cybercriminal groups \u2014 including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darkreading.com\/attacks-breaches\/five-russia-linked-groups-target-ukraine-in-cyberwar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gamaredon, Sandworm, and Fancy Bear<\/a> \u2014 have targeted Ukrainian government agencies and private companies in dozens of operations that aimed to disrupt
