The agency linked the broader pattern of hostile cyber activity against Polish critical infrastructure to Russian intelligence services, with intensified operations noted in 2024–2025. This represents a concrete, confirmed OT compromise of drinking water infrastructure — a scenario long discussed theoretically by ICS security practitioners.
