EU cyber-response team deployed

The European Union’s newly formed Cyber Rapid-Response Team (CRRT) has been deployed to Ukraine to aid in combat against Russian threat actors.


In a tweet yesterday, the Lithuanian Ministry of Defence confirmed the CRRT is to be deployed at the request of the Ukrainian government.


Lithuania will sit at the head of a coalition of six EU countries including Poland, Estonia, Croatia, Romania and the Netherlands with the goal of “helping Ukrainian institutions to cope with growing cyber-threats.”


The move follows a series of cyber attacks traced to Russia hitting Ukraine and an estimated 190,000 troops gathering on the countries’ shared border.
