The threat of cyberattacks waged by the russian federation both at the Ukrainian systems and systems of the European partners remains high, since the concept of the russian ‘hybrid war’ provides for using all the types of impact upon the country assaulted by russia. Therefore, we must always be on the alert for new russian attacks and keep enhancing our defenses, including the one in cyberspace.

It was emphasized by Brigadier General Yurii Shchyhol, the Head of the State Service of Special Communications and Information Protection of Ukraine, at the press conference in Media Center Ukraine — Ukrinform.

He also talked about:
- the number of hostile cyber attacks that have to be repelled every day, and about the investigation of complex cyber incidents;
- the purpose of Russian attacks on Ukrainian cyberspace and the main goals of Russian hackers;
- the situation with mobile communication in Ukraine and bringing the occupiers to justice for the destruction of the Ukrainian communication infrastructure.
