CERT-UA warns of an active social-engineering campaign targeting Ukrainian government entities and organizations where attackers impersonate CERT-UA and send unsolicited AnyDesk connection requests (notably referencing AnyDesk ID 1518341498) to gain remote access; the report lists indicators of compromise and recommends verification through official channels, enabling MFA, disabling remote-access software when not in use, and reporting suspicious requests.
