Cyber War in Perspective: Analysis From the Crisis in Ukraine
summary
NATO-funded study of the Ukraine crisis argues cyber operations are real, targeted campaigns that support kinetic moves: photo-geolocation proves Russian tank deployments, SIGINT clips are leaked for embarrassment, cables are severed to isolate command, and coordinated teams execute the electricity-grid blackout via spearphishing, backdoors, disabled backups, call‑center DoS and a timed logic bomb. The report details an election website manipulation campaign that alters posted results, widespread doxing/defacements, hacked smart TVs and billboards, and shows attribution and deterrence remain hard.
