The White House National Security Council on Feb. 18 blamed a Russian intelligence agency \u2014 the GRU \u2014 for some of the attacks, citing \u201ctechnical information.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Russian government has perpetrated cyberattacks against Ukraine,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c-span.org\/video\/?518182-1\/president-biden-announces-sanctions-warns-vladimir-putins-ambitions-larger-ukraine&#038;live=#&#038;vod\" target=\"_blank\">Biden said<\/a> Feb. 24. \u201cWe saw staged political theater in Moscow, outlandish and baseless claims that Ukraine was about to invade and launch a war against Russia, that Ukraine was prepared to use chemical weapons.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. cyber strategy and capabilities have been developed over decades, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/battlefield-tech\/it-networks\/2022\/02\/23\/project-convergence-reinforces-the-need-for-shared-standards-across-the-services\/\" target=\"_blank\">are still being honed<\/a>.

In 2021 alone, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/cyber\/2021\/03\/16\/in-a-cyberattack-disaster-dod-needs-backup-squad-to-fix-networks-restart-critical-systems\/\" target=\"_blank\">ransomware jeopardized<\/a> the Colonial Pipeline, propelling drivers into a gas-guzzling frenzy, as well as JBS, a meat-supplying behemoth.
