$GTCH But another, and perhaps, more timely application of cybersecurity technologies is in warfare, as outlined in a recent Forbes article discussing the Russia-Ukraine conflict. For instance, noting that following the outbreak of war "suspected Russian-sourced cyber-attacks were observed over a 48-hour period at an increase of over 800%," the article cautions that "every organization, without exception, must act with extreme urgency to secure its information technology infrastructures."
This view is supported by coverage from Accenture's Cyber Threat Intelligence and Cyber Investigation & Forensics Response, which warns that the Russian "offensive also has a cyber component that could potentially affect parties in multiple locations, including Ukraine, NATO countries, and their allies." Accenture itself has a Cyber Threat Intelligence component - as part of Accenture Security - which "is continually investigating numerous cases of financially motivated targeting and suspected cyber espionage," boasting expert analysts "in malware reverse engineering, vulnerability analysis, threat actor reconnaissance and geopolitical threats."
