Russian cyber operators successfully hacked elements of the Ukrainian power system. They were inside for 2 months, undetected. They managed to CUT OFF THE POWER wartime realities. Again. With a cyberattack. That would normally be A HUGE EVENT. But kinetic strikes dwarf it so it becomes a footnote of this war. #cyberattack #ics #cyberoperation #cyberwar #cyberwarfare https://lnkd.in/dnFAU4aY

Hacktivists/civilian hackers and their activities during armed conflicts (instead of war) are crucial topics. Additionally, one of the most important areas that requires revision pertains to 'Direct Participation in Hostilities,' particularly the criteria of direct causation and belligerent nexus when it comes to cyber operations in an armed conflict.

Hacktivism in armed conflict has taken unprecedented levels. Mauro Vignati and I have pulled together 8 IHL-based rules that all hackers must respect, and recall 4 obligations of states to restrain them. No doubt: Cyber ops in war have limits – even hacktivists must them. Do not - attack civilian objects - attacks indiscriminately - harm civilians - harm medical and humanitarian facilities - harm indispensable objects & dangerous forces - spread terror https://t.co/SDDxkmLnbu

Earlier this year, a US airman pleaded guilty to leaking classified military documents to a group on messaging app, Discord – in one of the most serious US national security breaches in years.

Last month, the Ministry of Defence experienced a large-scale cyber attack through third-party provider Shared Services Connected LTD (SSCL), compromising the personal data of an estimated 250,000 army personnel. At Barings Law, we understand the impact this breach has had on those affected. In response, we have launched a compensation claim for victims of the breach, with many of those feeling let down and uncertain about their futures, particularly those with high-security clearance positions who now fear the loss of their jobs and personal safety. For further information about the breach and the action we are taking on behalf of those affected, read our latest press release: https://lnkd.in/dyZnjczw #MinistryofDefence #DataBreach #CyberAttack #LawNews #TechNews

👀 Another interesting campaign from the Securonix Threat Research team which was observed targeting the Ukrainian military, this time using a crafty file-less PowerShell backdoor (SUBTLE-PAWS). The malware injects itself directly into the Windows registry as unique registry values saved directly into HKCU\System where each value contains a separate #PowerShell function. Also, interestingly enough, lateral movement is achieved only through USB infection/propagation tactics (malicious .lnk files). This is likely due to the fact that many of the devices used by the Ukrainian military are air-gapped using networks such as Starlink for internet connectivity. https://lnkd.in/dpN52nBK
