Ukraine’s media outlets have become a primary focus of Russian cyberattacks since the escalation of the conflict in 2022, according to the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU). These attacks aim to disrupt information flow and undermine public trust. Recent incidents include a massive distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack targeting a Ukrainian TV website, which registered a staggering 200,000 requests per minute. The SBU emphasizes the heightened threat level and ongoing efforts to mitigate these cyber threats. These persistent attacks demonstrate Russia's intent to weaponize cyberspace as part of its broader aggression against Ukraine. Defending against these assaults is crucial for maintaining media freedom and national security in the country. The SBU is actively working to strengthen cybersecurity measures and protect vital media infrastructure.
