How Did Russia Shutoff Ukrainian Heat During The Winter?


Listen Later

In this episode, Shannon, Chris, and Daniel discuss a cyber attack carried out by Russia on Ukraine, where they used malware to sabotage the heating utility of 600 buildings in the middle of winter. This affected 100,000 people and was a deliberate attempt to break the will of the Ukrainian people. The hosts highlight the evolving nature of warfare, with cyber attacks becoming as important as conventional attacks. They emphasize the need for countries to secure their infrastructure and map their data flows to protect against such attacks. They also discuss the potential for multiple simultaneous attacks to overwhelm a country's defenses.
