The State Special Communications Service warned of an increase in cyberattacks.
Since the beginning of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation, Ukraine has been subjected to a powerful attack on critical information infrastructure. Victor Zhora, Deputy Chairman of the State Special Service for Digital Development, Digital Transformations and Digitization, spoke about the “second front” at the briefing.
Malware distribution, phishing and DDoS attacks are key types of attacks by Russian IT agents.
“Hackers are primarily attacking the financial, government and telecommunications infrastructure. Despite this, all services work and are available to users. Providers and operators deal with cyber attacks on their networks. Most of the problems in the operation of networks are related to physical damage, which can also be eliminated quickly, “said Victor Zhora.
