In September 2023, 86 cyber operations were recorded in the EuRepoC database. This is a 37% increase from the previous month, and 30 operations more than the overall average recorded activity of 56 cyber operations per month.
The average intensity of operations recorded in September 2023 is 2.5, which is below the historical average (2.7). The striking increase in operations since February 2023 is partly explained by the fact that, since March 2023, EuRepoC has been recording operations conducted against critical infrastructure targets and no longer makes inclusion contingent on whether these activities are linked to political or governmental threat actors or victims.
