Ukraine says another sweeping cyberattack underway as state websites and banks hit
In a series of statements posted to Twitter, the company said that the destructive software had been "installed on hundreds of machines in the country," an attack it said had likely been in the works for the past couple of months.
Who is responsible for the wiper remains unclear, although suspicion immediately fell on Russia, which has repeatedly been accused of launching data-scrambling hacks against Ukraine and other countries. Russia has denied the allegations. Earlier on Wednesday the websites of Ukraine's government, foreign ministry and state security service were down in what the government said was the start of another denial of service attack.
