Richard Horn, Head of the UK's National Cybersecurity Center, said that the serious risks that his country may face due to Russia and China are extremely underestimated. This statement was not groundless, because the British National Cybersecurity Center (NCSC) recorded a significant increase in cyber attacks over the past 12 months, the newspaper writes.
For example, last week, British minister Pat McFadden noted the potential consequences of extending Russia's already active cyber operations to more serious areas.
"China can be destabilized by that kind of pressure. For an additional cyberattack, Russia can shut down millions of people," says Pet McFadden.
In addition, all countries affected by the upcoming conflict have begun to urge their citizens to prepare for power outages. For example, a Swedish brochure reprinted this month contains links on how to deal with power outages, as well as the Norwegian government's Emergency Preparedness Guide. A report from the Finnish government refers to cyber attacks that cause "prolonged power outages", while Denmark refers to various crises, including a digital attack that causes "loss of utilities".
