Alert: Threats associated with the escalating geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine

As geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine continue to escalate, we anticipate that there will be a rise in Russian state-sponsored cyber attacks against organisations outside of Ukraine in conjunction with the conflict.

We believe these concerns are justified based on previous undisciplined Russian APT cyber attacks that initially targeted Ukraine only to spread wider.

We recommend that organisations urgently adopt an enhanced cyber posture. In our new threat advisory we provide guidance on how to boost organisational cyber resilience and offer insights into Russia’s cyber threat actors, their tactics and capabilities.
