French authorities have pointed fingers at Russian hackers for their alleged involvement in the infamous “Macron leaks” during President Emmanuel Macron’s 2017 election campaign. This accusation marks the first time France has publicly accused Moscow of meddling in their affairs through cyberattacks.

The Russian hacking group identified as APT28, also known as Fancy Bear and linked to the GRU, Russia’s intelligence service, has been accused of orchestrating the cyberattacks. This same group has a history of cybercrimes, including hacking the German Bundestag in 2015 and the U.S. Democratic National Committee in 2016.

According to the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the APT28 group has been active in carrying out attacks against French interests for several years. Recent reports suggest that this group was also involved in targeting a dozen French entities since 2021 and putting pressure on Ukraine’s infrastructure.

Furthermore, France’s cybersecurity agency revealed that ministerial agencies and private sector actors in finance and aerospace were among the targets of these cyberattacks. Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot emphasized France’s vigilance against such threats, labeling it a “silent war” waged by Russia against France.

The French government’s decision to publicly call out the perpetrators of these cyberattacks by name is a rare move, indicating the seriousness of the situation. President Macron’s recent strong stance against Russian President Vladimir Putin further underlines France’s determination to address these cybersecurity challenges.

Macron’s increasing rhetoric against Putin, including urging him to “stop lying” about his intentions in the Ukraine conflict, showcases France’s firm stance on holding Russia accountable for its actions. The French president’s efforts to pressure both the U.S. and Russia to prioritize peace talks have intensified in recent times, signaling France’s commitment to combatting cyber threats and ensuring international security.
