Could Russia’s war on Ukraine escalate into a global cyberwar?

Could Russia’s war on Ukraine escalate into a global cyberwar?

When Russia began amassing troops on Ukraine’s border in late 2021, many security experts predicted a similar build-up of Russian hackers along the ideological boundaries of cyberspace, ready to match any physical strike with an equally damaging virtual attack.

Months into Moscow’s brutal military invasion, a cyberwar of similar consequence has yet to materialize. But the threats of cyberwar have not gone away.

As the world becomes increasingly reliant on technology across all walks of life, the potential for cyberwarfare to wreak havoc on society remains whether in this conflict or the next.

It might possible.

That is the point. Cyberwarfare is already a part of any conflict, not just in Ukraine.

 

[The SC]

There were attempts..but very sporadic..

Might be still going on..this is a dark area of warfare..

 

[Catalystic]

Might turn into ww3 or start it….

 

[MultaniGuy]

Maybe Saudi Arabia and Pakistan should support Russia in the war against Ukraine.

Same way how Kafir nations support factions in conflicts in our part of the world.

 

[Hamartia Antidote]

definitely

Yes, this is a serious risk. Not just a cyber war, but a full on 5th Gen war on a global scale.

 

[patero]

The Russian cyber onslaught already came and went at the start of the Ukraine invasion and went largely unnoticed by the media and mainstream western society. This is because US agencies including DOD, NSA and others working with tech companies and other western governments quietly went about identifying the back-doors and exploits Russia cyber operatives had built up over years, and closed them. This along with the deployment of Starlink effectively and quickly neutralized Russian cyberwarfare against Ukraine, and has contained potential Russian cyber attacks against Western targets.

There are almost certainly behind the scene understandings between Moscow and Washington about the escalation ladder. I think both parties, who are only THE real parties in the conflict, have a long experience in proxy wars starting from the Korean War and know not to cross certain lines. This is the latest theater of that and the two treat each other as 'worthy opponents'. And I also think Russia has yet to use some very destructive weapons and her cyber warfare capabilities--saving the 'best' (or the worst!) for the last. And we all better pray it doesn't come to the cyber warfare otherwise those of us, especially sitting in Western countries, would see financial institutions, power plants, and communication systems disabled every now and then. The war would come to our door steps then!!

The Russians and Chinese are very capable cyber warriors.

Maybe its possible

 

[Communism]

Nonsense scaremongering to fish for budget increases.

In any serious "cyberwar," most of the U.S.'s opponents' general computing will be disabled through the NSA backdoors in most of the major software and hardware that the U.S. had a hand in making.

The whole "Russian Hackers," "Chinese Cyberwarriors" meme is just fluff made up by the NSA to drum up funding.

 

[kingQamaR]

ALL secret services around the world employ hackers. We’d be a fool to think otherwise.

 

[Viet]

There were attempts..but very sporadic..

Might be still going on..this is a dark area of warfare..

Already happens as we speak. European banks shut down all data communication links to Russia. They fear cyberattacks by Russia. Now Russia staffs just sit idle, will have the choice, either to migrate to Europe or being laid off.
Putin deeam of making Moscow to financial center is over.
