Bilyana Lilly on how cybersecurity assistance to Ukraine has helped thwart Russian cyberattacks

More than a year into Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Kyiv has seen remarkable success repelling Russian cyberattacks. That’s due in part to expansive cybersecurity assistance from Western governments and private sector players paired with Ukraine’s remarkable investments in building up its computer response teams after repeated Russian cyberattack on its electrical grid.

Bilyana Lilly, who chairs the cyber track at the Warsaw Security Forum, recently completed a major study of this assistance package and joins CyberScoop Senior Editor Elias Groll to discuss what worked, what didn’t and Elon Musk’s perplexing role in supporting Ukrainian forces.
