Passwork’s Russian Roots Raise Red Flags | Amsterdam News
Description
A European password manager called Passwork, touted as a privacy-focused tool for EU businesses and even government agencies, is now under fire after investigative reports reveal it’s actually Russian-made — developed in 2014 and still linked to Russia. Major Russian state entities, including sanctioned defense contractors, are using the same software, raising alarms that the Kremlin could exploit its vulnerabilities. With critical infrastructure like solar parks and broadcasters relying on it, experts warn this could open the door to catastrophic cyberattacks — including power outages. While some users cling to the “European” narrative, the risks are too high to ignore.
