Director A. Aleknavičius, speaking to the Ministry of Defense, stated that the primary focus during significant cyber incidents is on operational outcomes, specifically achieving full clarification of the situation, implementing threat management, and safeguarding state information resources. He emphasized that public commentary is secondary to these core objectives.
Aleknavičius noted that when dealing with major cyber events, the immediate requirement is for a professional and consistent investigation, rather than public assessment. He confirmed that the National Cyber Security Center (NKSC) is currently conducting a comprehensive incident analysis. This effort involves collaboration with the VRM and several other responsible institutions.
The goal of this joint effort is to identify all contributing circumstances, accurately assess the potential impact, and ensure that necessary containment measures are promptly implemented. The director clarified the process for public disclosure, stating that detailed information about the investigation will only be released when the authorities are certain that such publicity will neither compromise the ongoing investigative process nor undermine the applied incident management measures. This measured approach ensures that necessary technical procedures can be executed without interference.
The administration stressed that the immediate priority remains technical remediation and systemic security, rather than issuing public statements regarding the specifics of the breach.
