The Russian invasion of Ukraine has markedly altered the global cyber security environment, with increased cyber threats and operations targeting critical infrastructure. Initially, cyber extortion activities faced disruptions due to chaos but have rebounded with more sophisticated techniques, including AI-driven attacks. Various state-sponsored groups, particularly from Russia, are implicated in targeted campaigns against Ukrainian entities, employing advanced malware to disrupt services and influence military operations. The resilience of Ukraine's infrastructure is deliberately undermined, showcasing a blend of cyber and kinetic strategies. The Security Navigator 2025 report underscores these trends.
