Secondo Joseph Fitsanakis di IntelNews  tra i documenti rubati nel server del CNAIPIC ce ne sarebbero alcuni che indicherebbero una sistematica attività di raccolta informativa ai danni di compagnie energetiche e delle difesa russe da parte dell'Italia.

"Among the documents are reports that seem to point to systematic intelligence-gathering operations by CNAIPIC against Russia’s government-owned energy and defense industries. Some of the information contained in the reports appears to have been stolen from the embassy of India in Moscow, probably through cyberespionage. The stolen information would suggest that CNAIPIC has had access since late 2009 to confidential correspondence between the Indian embassy and a number of Russian military aircraft industries, including Aviazapchast, Ilyushin Aircraft, and NPO Saturn."
