Ukraine’s defense ministry and two banks, Privatbank and Oschadbank, have fallen victim to an apparent cyberattack. Ukraine’s cybersecurity center has hinted that Russia may be a potential culprit, Reuters reports. Security and foreign policy experts have said they believe Russia may launch a broader cyberattack that would precede any kinetic strike, ultimately to enable or deepen military operations. The Russian government has used cyberattacks as a key component of their force projection over the last decade, experts say. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security issued a bulletin last month warning of potential cyberattacks.”]
