Zhora told attendees that Ukraine had detected over 1,600 "major cyber incidents" so far in 2022, but reports don't include elaboration on how such incidents are classified. A number of huge incidents happened between March and April, Zhora said, including discovery of the "Industroyer2," an apparent successor to the
Industroyer malware discovered in 2017.
Industroyer was a particularly nasty strain that was able to control electrical substation software and cause power blackouts, as well as damage equipment. Ukraine was hit by a similar malware called
BlackEnergy in 2015.
Online attacks against Ukraine were a common tactic in the leadup to Russia's invasion of the country in late February he said.
DDoS attacks took many of Ukraine's government agencies offline, and
new malware strains were discovered in the leadup to the invasion as well.
The Russo-Ukraine conflict has had
global cybersecurity implications, including leading to a large spike in data-wiping malware, of which
six significant new strains have been found this year.
