The latest on attacks, traffic patterns and cyber protection in Ukraine

Since Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Ukrainian infrastructure has been targeted by cyberattacks including DDoS attacks and other common threats. Cybersecurity company Cloudflare has provided free services and support to the Ukrainian government, critical infrastructure providers, and nonprofit organizations in the region to combat these attacks. As Russian troops advanced into Ukraine, physical security of internet infrastructure also became a significant concern. This prompted companies to adopt new models of security including moving data to public clouds for better protection. Internet disruptions due to power outages and deliberate manipulation have emerged as tools in armed conflict, disrupting communication channels and accessibility to information. Cloudflare continues to provide tools to protect critical services from cyberattacks and improve security for entities operating in the region. The company is committed to sharing information about the internet situation within Ukraine.
