Foreign governments, likely Russian, are allegedly launching sophisticated cyberattacks targeting top EU officials through state-sponsored spearphishing—personalized scams designed to trick them into handing over login credentials. This marks the first time the EU’s cyber defense unit has publicly confirmed such targeted account takeovers as one of its biggest threats this year. The attacks mirror earlier warnings about fake Signal support bots that compromised official communications, prompting EU agencies to urge against using commercial messaging apps for sensitive work. With eight major incidents already reported and fragmented security systems across EU institutions, the bloc faces a growing challenge in securing digital communications—while the European Commission and messaging platforms remain silent on their own security measures.
