CNN
US critical infrastructure firms should reinforce their defenses and increase their vigilance following data-destroying cyberattacks in Ukraine prior to a large-scale Russian attack on the country, the FBI and US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency said Saturday.
"Destructive malware can present a direct threat to an organization's daily operations, impacting the availability of critical assets and data," the US agencies said in a public advisory. "Further disruptive cyberattacks against organizations in Ukraine are likely to occur and may unintentionally spill over to organizations in other countries."
The advisory includes several technical recommendations for organizations to keep malicious software from spreading on their systems.
