/ world today news/ The West is using new types of cyber weapons against Russia, using Ukraine’s network infrastructure, the Public Relations Center of the FSB reported.
“During the analysis of the identified computer threats, data was obtained indicating the use of Ukrainian territory by the United States and NATO countries to carry out massive computer attacks against civilian targets in Russia. “Ukraine’s network infrastructure is currently being used by offensive cyber operations of Western countries, allowing them to covertly use new types of cyber weapons,” the statement said.
In total, since the beginning of 2022, experts have registered more than 5,000 hacker attacks against Russia’s critical infrastructure. Negative consequences were avoided thanks to timely actions.
“Cyberattacks are being developed with the direct participation of the Pentagon’s Joint Command in cooperation with international (Anonymous, Silence) and national (Ghost Clan – USA, RedHack – Turkey, GNG – Georgia, Squad 303 – Poland and others) hacking groups,” revealed in FSB.
At the same time, Washington is trying to cover up its role in these operations, presenting as their “author” exclusively Ukraine, namely the group IT Army of Ukraine.
As the special service emphasized, the FSB has every opportunity to identify the real guarantors and organizers of cyberattacks against Russian infrastructure and bring them to justice.
Ensuring Russia’s information security is one of the key tasks that President Vladimir Putin set before the FSB at the agency’s expanded council in late February. The deputy director of the National Coordination Center for Computer Incidents, Nikolai Murashov, said that an unprecedented cyber campaign was launched against Russia to disable the information structure. A large number of digital attacks in 2022 were aimed at stealing information and disrupting technological processes, as well as interfering with the work of objects that could cause a public response.
