Polish space agency confirms cyberattack www.theregister.com/2025/03/0…

The Polish Space Agency (POLSA) is currently dealing with a “cybersecurity incident,” it confirmed via its X account on Sunday.

POLSA didn’t reveal much in the way of details about what’s going on, other than that the agency “immediately disconnected” its own network after discovering an intrusion into its systems. The social media post suggests this measure was taken to safeguard the security of its data.

Language like this is often seen in ransomware disclosure notices, although there is no indication that the event involves ransomware at this time. Pulling systems offline suggests POLSA was trying to eradicate a rogue user in the network and/or potentially stop the flow of data out of its servers.

The agency added that regulators and authorities have been alerted to the situation and its investigation into the attack remains ongoing.
