The situation in Ukraine continues to heat up, Russia's attitude is very clear, and behind Ukraine,Incitement in the United States, now there is a kind of enemy of the performance, the United States media CNN reported that so far, the confrontation between the United States and Russia in the Ukraine conflict has mainly occurred in the diplomatic and economic aspects. Russia's expertise in electronic warfare is not yet fully developed, but with the imposition of new U.S. sanctions on Russia, the conflict is likely to spill over into cyberspace.
The situation between Russia and Ukraine has reached a very dangerous point, and if the two sides do not give in, the next second, the capital of Ukraine is likely to fall, because Russia and Ukraine have obvious advantages in comparison. Although Ukraine was very tough before the conflict, and the so-called United States and European countries also seemed to be on the side of Ukraine, since the real Russian-Ukrainian conflict, no Western country chose to support Ukraine. As the main target of operation, US President Biden directly said that the United States will not send troops to help Ukraine, that is, when the war really starts, the so-called Supportive Ukraine has become an isolated loser.
Of course, these so-called "backing" countries are not indifferent, and Western countries have taken this opportunity to deliberately sanction Russia in an attempt to restrict Russia's actions from the economic and other aspects. However, such sanctions and the development of the situation more seriously may lead to a stronger Response from Russia, bearing in mind that So far, Russia's electronic warfare capabilities have not been fully demonstrated, and this capability may eventually bring incalculable damage to the United States.
The electronic warfare capability mentioned here does not mean electromagnetic interference in military struggles or the like, but it is also very similar. Us media reports say that there are many hackers in Russia, and it is difficult to guarantee that Russia will not use hacking technology to achieve some purposes. For example, potential cyber technology attacks and the like, of course, the United States said that Russian hacking technology to destroy the use of the system is not the first time, in the past two years, in the US media reports, basically some of the cyber attacks against the US infrastructure, have been considered related to Russian hackers. For example, hacking attacks involving multiple government agencies, and then a cyber attack that forced the United States to suffer heavy losses in 2021, fuel pipelines were forced to shut down for several days, when the US government not only lost a sum, but also extorted a sum. These cyber attacks on the United States have all been branded by the United States as "suspected Russian hackers".
All in all, for the United States, as long as it can be linked to cyber attacks, it is basically related to Russia, in the words of Heb Lin, a senior research scholar on network policy and security at the Stanford Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford University, although there is no direct evidence, Americans generally believe that hackers are related to Russia.
Of course, the United States will not say that Russia may use cyberspace attacks for no reason, according to media reports, since the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, Ukraine has been subjected to multiple cyber attacks, including cyber attacks on Ukrainian parliamentary websites and government agencies. CNN mentioned in the report that analysts at S&P Global Ratings said that ukraine is at increased risk of cyberattacks, especially global companies working with Ukrainian organizations, which are likely to be targeted by cyberattacks.
Of course, it would only affect the operations of private companies or ordinary departments and data, but the United States is worried that Russian hackers may directly target military equipment, or infrastructure related to people's livelihood, such as satellite facilities. The reason why the United States is so worried about Russian hacking technology is not really about Ukraine, but for the United States itself, because Ukraine is very dependent on foreign technology in some aspects, especially in military satellites.
For example, the spy satellites just mentioned, Ukraine does not have its own spy satellites, and has always obtained spy images through commercial satellites, most of which are located in the United States. In addition, some ukrainian military facilities also have the participation of the United States, so if the conflict is further escalated, then all the things that the United States helps the Ukrainian military machine will probably become the target of Russian hacking.
Combined with Russia's direct firing at command posts in Kiev and at vital military infrastructure such as radar stations and anti-aircraft missile systems, it is indeed possible for Russia to target large-scale infrastructure construction, especially U.S. facilities to help Ukraine, if electronic network technology capabilities are used.
After all, things have developed to the present, if there is no United States behind the "arch fire, ignition", Europe behind the "fanning the wind and ignition", then Ukraine does not dare to "fire".
Of course, it is not excluded that Russia will target the Bank of america, because the United States does not dare to send troops to help Ukraine, but it can not do nothing, so Biden intends to suppress Russia in the financial system, and this must use the Bank of the United States.
But in the end, whether the "Russian hacker" exists or not is still unknown, after all, from the beginning it was only the United States that was on the sidelines, but if the United States continues to arch behind Ukraine' back, it is really uncertain what the final result will be.
