NoName057(16) is a pro-Russian hacker group that first declared itself in March 2022 and claimed responsibility for cyber-attacks on Ukrainian, American and European government agencies, media, and private companies. It is regarded as an unorganized and free pro-Russian activist group seeking to attract attention in Western countries.
The first attacks claimed by the group in March 2022 were DDoS attacks targeting Ukraine news and media websites Zaxid and Fakty UA among others. Overall the motivations of the group appear to center around silencing organisations the group deem to be anti-Russian.
In July 2025 Europol and Eurojust took action against the gang, releasing warrants for 6 people.
NoName057(16) operates using Telegram channels where they claim responsibility for their attacks, mock targets, make threats, and share educational content. They have used GitHub to host their DDoS tool website and associated repositories. The group has developed a DDoS tool named DDOSIA, which conducts denial-of-service attacks by repeatedly issuing network requests to target sites.
It is noteworthy that the threat actor appears to collaborate with other pro-Russian cyber collectives, such as Killnet and XakNet.
Ukrainian media employees received threatening letters from the NoName057(16) group. This was confirmed by the Ukrainian ex-Ombudsman Lyudmila Denisova. OSINT researcher Cyberknow20 has included NoName057(16) in his summary table of hacker groups, which he periodically updates. It is believed that their main enemy is a Spanish hacker known as Duna since he has exposed them on many occasions. This group, together with agents of the Russian FSB, is attributed with the attempted murder of Duna on at least four occasions.
On the Telegram channel of the group a "Manifesto" was posted 11/03/2022.
