The damage caused by the attack by Russian hackers on the sites of six Italian banks has been relative so far, as the sites were only made inaccessible for a few minutes.

Experts said this was minor damage compared to the much more feared ransomware, which steals data with a ransom demand.

But, on their social media channels, pro-Russian hackers "Noname057(16)" rejoiced at these cyber attacks against the "Russian-phobic Italian authorities".

The affected banks were Bper, "Monte dei Paschi di Siena", "Banca Popolare di Sondrio", Fineco, Intesa and Fideuram.

Technicians from the National Cyber ​​Security Agency immediately contacted them to inform them about the new offensive and to give the first indications for mitigating the effects.
