What Russia will do in #cyberspace in #Ukraine and potentially in Europe, #Microsoft's thoughts and estimates.
Some highlights from the article:
What has already been done: "Cyberattacks on Ukrainian and now foreign-based supply chains, and cyber-enabled influence operations—intended to undermine #US, #EU, and #NATO political support for Ukraine.
What has already been done: "Cyberattacks on Ukrainian and now foreign-based supply chains, and cyber-enabled influence operations—intended to undermine #US, #EU, and #NATO political support for Ukraine.
Russian military operators also expanded destructive cyberactivity outside Ukraine to #Poland, a critical logistics hub, in a possible attempt to disrupt the movement of weapons and supplies to the front."
"#Russia|n cyber forces, as well as their traditional forces, underperformed" during the initial invasion of #Ukraine in February, @DeptofDefense's @MiekeEoyang tells #AspenCyberSummit
"Russia [in #cyberspace] was not prepared for the conflict to go on as long as it did"
"Russia [in #cyberspace] was not prepared for the conflict to go on as long as it did"
In #Ukraine, "the context of the armed conflict dwarfs the cyber impacts" per @MiekeEoyang
"Things that Russians tried to disrupt via cyber could not actually did not have the strategic impact that they wanted & they sought to destroy those things physically"

"When you think about the cybersecurity of data centers for example it's not just abt patching & closing those things,it is abt the physical security of those data centers" per @MiekeEoyang
"It is abt whether or not those data centers are within the range of #Russia|n missiles"

Fire in the hole! #TeamOneFist is celebrating #Kherson with a gift for #Ukraine: Op.Positron.
Supporting the offensive, we launched a strategic #cyber strike against TsARZ in #Yekaterinburg, #Russia. They repair trucks, BTRs, and light armored vehicles for the RF MOD 1/

We attacked their #SCADA/#ICS, demolishing 8 expensive Schneider M258s #PLC, w/2400 channels & 16 DOF each for complex machines. This led to a fire that erased an entire workshop building, and took 13 trucks to extinguish! According to locals the first 3 arrived without water😂2/
We also attacked some extra ICS devices that we found, to add to the op's effect!
Today Kherson, tomorrow #Crimea! #UkraineWillWin, and we will keep fighting for a quick, total victory in #cyberspace. Glory to the ZSU! 🇺🇦☢️👊 3/

"Having 10 folks on the ground that are tied back to our command & our agency, that's power I think is really helpful" per @CYBERCOM_DIRNSA re US #cyber aid to #Ukraine
Says US "surged to well over 30...we flooded the zone" to help #Kyiv in #cyber

"Microsoft has seen the Russian military launch multiple waves of destructive cyberattacks against 48 distinct Ukrainian agencies & enterprises..." per report
Goal of #Russia's #cyberattacks vs #Ukraine has been to "penetrate network domains by initially comprising hundreds of computers & then spreading #malware designed to destroy the software & data on thousands of others" per @Microsoft
#Russia also targeting governments outside #Ukraine
"We’ve detected Russian network intrusion efforts on 128 organizations in 42 countries outside Ukraine" per @Microsoft

First, check out this remarkable @Techcrunch article called "Geeks for Monarchy".
Long before the 2016 election brought us a #Trump/#Putin/#Theil/#AltRight mashup of craziness, @klintron laid out this #antidemocracy ideology waaaaaay back in 2013.

#war #Kyiv #Ukraine #Russia Collecting all reports thread; Ukraine's operational command says "cruise and ballistic missile strikes are underway at the control centres in Kyiv" from @lukeharding1968 Friends report explosions in #Kyiv, #Odessa #Kharkiv #Mykolaev thread, add info
Targets include airfields and military headquarters, operational command says
"Distant crumps - soft explosions - reported from west Kyiv, towards the airport. Not Cruise missiles, i think, but sounds like an attack on the airport." @JohnSweeney
The @IRLCoDF is out. This 🧵will focus on the #cyberspace aspect of the report, peppered with fact and my opinion. Here we go....
CoDF recognises that cyberspace is a key military domain beyond 2030 and is a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
CoDF recognises that cyberspace is a key military domain beyond 2030 and is a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
the CoDF believes that the NATO standards for training and equipping the DF for cyber capabilities should be our benchmark and the gov needs to align policy, funding and resources with this in mind.
Recognizing the inherent interdependences of the cyber domain a national security policy is necessary, engaging the NCSC, Gardai, NSAC and other agencies. (Problem here is we will not have a national security strategy).
"Some of the leading threats to the American way of life are #cyber enabled - from espionage to influence to attack" Deputy National Security Advisor for Cyber Anne Neuberger tells #AspenSecurity
Sanctions vs #Russia but not #China for malign #cyber behavior?
"#SolarWinds was not the 1st case of aggressive Russian cyber activity in int'l space" per @WHNSC's Neuberger

.@BradSmi: We often see nation state #cyberattacks that identify and develop new attack vectors, which are then pursued by #cybercriminals often for #ransomware that is putting at risk institutions we all rely on #Raisina2021

Brig Gen Brook Leonard, #USSPACECOM chief of staff, is speaking right now at the #Space Power Forum presented by the Air Force Association’s @MitchellStudies.
Leonard on #USSPACECOM & @SpaceForceDoD: Awesome to see the focus our nation has on increasing our #space capabilities, awareness & what we're able to do.
#USSPACECOM wants to be agile & ambidextrous. Want to be able to get after mission we have today, but take leaps & bounds into the future.

Combatting #disinformation: "We can't compromise our American values in the process" BrigGen Richard Angle, Deputy Commanding General, Jt Special Operations Command, tells #FutureSecurityForum
Dangers of taking on #disinformation
"If you engage in it, those pushing it win. If you ignore it, those pushing it win" per BrigGen Angle
"If you engage in it, those pushing it win. If you ignore it, those pushing it win" per BrigGen Angle
"We need to seize the initiative. We beed to own the narrative. And we need to expand the concept of persistent engagement in #cyberspace to persistent engagement in information operations" per BrigGen Angle

New National Security Strategy of #Poland is quite a solid and healthy document, with an adequate understanding of the current and near-future threats. it identifies the "neo-imperial policy" of #Russia as the most serious threat, "pursued also by means of military force". 1/13
2/13 It warns of an outbreak of a conflict "originating from a violent escalation as a result of an incident" due to the #Russia/n "below the threshold of war" activities that could provoke such a conflict, including an international one.

I’m particular I liked your characterisation of #DragonBear as a “temporary asymmetric relationship”. But some questions too:
@vtchakarova @amlivemon @Halsrethink @LibrariumViews @JamesGRickards @gbponz @BaldingsWorld @C_Barraud @BcnFox @MacaesBruno @chigrl @RobertMCutler @GrayConnolly @DrPippaM @Kostian_V @wangxiangweihk @IndoPac_Info @michaeltanchum 1) is the main common denominator of #Dragonbear really the exclusion of #US & #EU from #Eurasia (all very Mackinder!)? Are #China’s & #Russia’s #geopolitics the same? Does not Russia aim to exclude while China aims to bridge?
@vtchakarova @amlivemon @Halsrethink @LibrariumViews @JamesGRickards @gbponz @BaldingsWorld @C_Barraud @BcnFox @MacaesBruno @chigrl @RobertMCutler @GrayConnolly @DrPippaM @Kostian_V @wangxiangweihk @IndoPac_Info @michaeltanchum 2) Does #China really need #Russia know how in #diplomacy & #defence? I spent 5 years dealing with Chinese diplomacy, and it has nothing to learn from Russia. I suspect the day’s when China learnt from Russian military and military technology are also long gone

3/7: The Chinese simply seem to have spotted a #US #cyberintrusion and snatched the code, often developed at huge expense to #American taxpayers.
Tune in tonight at 6 PM ET to watch #GenDunford field questions #live from @DukeU students on national security and his role in the @DeptofDefense: go.usa.gov/xPpU4
#GenDunford on the @DeptofDefense National Defense Strategy and our sources of strength: Our network of allies and partners built up since WW2, our ability to project power when and where necessary, and our ability to move across all domains: sea, land, air and #cyberspace.
#GenDunford on #Russia and #China and how things have changed since the 1990s: We have two states now who can challenge our ability to project power and challenge us in all five domains: sea, land, air, space and #cyber.
