Access to Yandex Drive Restricted After Attack

Yandex Drive users are experiencing issues accessing personal photos and files. The incident occurred amid a new wave of cyberattacks targeting the company's infrastructure.

Many documents and media files have become unavailable for viewing and downloading. This is because part of the data has been temporarily restricted for end consumers.

The company explained the situation as necessary to protect services from further threats.

Yandex decided to intentionally limit the functionality of the Yandex 360 platform. The restrictions also affected the Drive cloud storage.

The main goal of these measures is to maintain the overall operational capability of all ecosystem services under increased load and risk conditions.
