CIVØ / ORIGIN
Origin Story
01
CIVØ was founded in 2016 by an independent collective of security researchers from Eastern Europe. The group gained international notoriety in 2017 after the "Grey Mirror" operation — a series of sophisticated breaches into US government databases including Pentagon and CIA systems. CIVØ has never cooperated with any state actor and operates purely as a digital resistance entity. Since 2018, the group has operated exclusively within the .onion network, offering services only to verified clients. The group is known for its strict operational security, zero-logging policy, and asymmetric encryption protocols.
THE FRONTThe United States intelligence community first identified CIVØ after the 2017 Pentagon data leak.
The group remains unclassified and operates outside any jurisdiction.
