Hacking in Plain Sight: Offensive Cyber Operations in the Russo-Ukrainian War

Erica D. Lonergan, Silas Cutler, Marc Rogers, and Megan Stifel

EVENT DESCRIPTION

When Russia invaded Ukraine, much was said about the perceived lack of cyber operations being used in the early part of the war. However, offensive cyber campaigns have indeed been key components of the ongoing conflict, and are important to investigate and understand.

On May 11, 2022, the Army Cyber Institute’s Erica D. Lonergan, Stairwell’s Silas Cutler, Okta’s Marc Rogers, and IST’s Megan Stifel had a conversation about the range of cyber operations seen in the Russo-Ukrainian war, how each country responded, the implications for both countries, and what we can learn when it comes to modern cyber operations in wartime.
