"These are different types of the attacks, sometimes really massive, sometimes quite sophisticated. Currently russia provides on an average more than 10 cyberattacks daily… Their targets are different: state resources, critical infrastructure facilities, etc. But we are successfully countering the enemy in cyberspace as well," explained Mr. Maliuk.
