Community Call: Russian Interference in Ukraine



Flashpoint has earlier warned of a heightened risk of cyberattacks against Ukrainian and US entities as negotiations between NATO countries and Russia seem to be at an impasse. Russia has continued transporting military equipment and troops towards its border with Ukraine, including Iskander missile systems over the past couple of days. Recently, there has been an uptick in cyber activities and Russian law enforcement have brought cyber operations into this geopolitical situation. In this recording, Flashpoint reviews recent events including website defacements, wiper malware discovery, data dumps, REvil arrests, what to expect in coming days/weeks, and geopolitical analysis.
