At the time of the outage, Downdetector reported that nearly 40,000 users were unable to access X; however, Elon Musk claims that user functionality was quickly restored.

A hacker group linked to Russia has claimed responsibility for a massive cyberattack on X, which caused thousands of users to be unable to access the social network, although user functionality was quickly restored.

The cybersecurity group SpyoSecure said in a post published on March 10 on X that the hacker group Dark Storm made a post on Telegram claiming responsibility for the distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, which was published by the group's leader.

"For anyone wondering why X (Twitter) was down, it was being attacked by the Dark Storm Team," said SpyoSecure.
