Russian-backed hacking group APT28 has likely brute-forced multiple Norwegian Parliament (Stortinget) email accounts on August 24, 2020. Attackers gained access to a limited number of Stortinget email accounts of representatives and employees. Russia officially denied Norway’s accusations saying that they aren’t based on evidence. APT 28 is a group of Russian nation-state hackers, members of Unit 26165 and Unit 74455 of the Russian Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU), the country’s military intelligence service.
