Jeremy Fleming, the head of intelligence, in an article in The Economist, wrote that both countries are using their cyber capabilities in the war in Ukraine. “So far, President Putin has completely lost the information war in Ukraine and the West. While this is cause for celebration, we should not underestimate how Russian disinformation is playing out elsewhere in the world,” Fleming wrote.

The country’s use of offensive cyber tools was irresponsible and indiscriminate.” Fleming said Russia had developed WhisperGate malware to destroy and deface Ukrainian government systems. He also said Russia has used the same playbook in the past on Syria and the Balkans and said online disinformation is an important part of Russia’s strategy. However, GCHQ was able to intercept and give early warnings, he said. Without going into too much detail, Fleming said the UK’s National Cyber Force could respond to Russia by deploying a British military unit that uses offensive cyber tools.
