Ukraine’s Decentralized Cyber Army

CYBER - Een podcast door VICE - Vrijdagen

The war in Ukraine isn’t just happening on the ground, it’s also happening in cyberspace. It’s under reported and little understood, but just as the resilience of Urkainian’s kinetic defense is grinding against Russia, so too is the war online.Which is funny, because Russia is supposed to be good at this. At least … that’s what we all used to think. Hell, maybe it even used to be true. But now a team of volunteer hackers called the Ukraine IT Army is defending Kyiv and striking back against Moscow.This week on Cyber, Motherboard staff writer Lorenzo Franchesci-Biccherai takes us into the Ukraine IT Army.Stories discussed in this episode:Inside Ukraine’s Decentralized Cyber ArmyRussia Released a Ukrainian App for Hacking Russia That Was Actually MalwareWe’re recording CYBER live on Twitch.
