Cyber Army of Russia Reborn, also called Cyber Army of Russia, is a Russian government-aligned hacktivist group identified by the U.S. Treasury. Treasury said it conducted denial-of-service activity from 2022 and later targeted industrial control systems in U.S. and European critical infrastructure.
Treasury described interference with water, wastewater, hydroelectric and energy control equipment. Public videos and actor claims require independent verification in each incident; they do not establish the complete scope of access or physical damage.
The operation is classified as a hacktivist group. Treasury sanctioned its identified leader and a primary hacker on July 19, 2024. General government-alignment findings do not establish state direction of a particular Tipton intrusion.
Contemporary reporting describes an April 20 video in which the group claimed interaction with Tipton wastewater systems. The claimed control actions remain unverified. The utility confirmed minor operational effects and continued treatment, without establishing every actor allegation or Russian government direction.
