In the UK, told how Russian electronic warfare and hackers threaten aviation

Great Britain again decided to scare the population with the power of Russia.

British media told citizens that Russia is preparing a cyberattack against military and civilian aircraft. Also, journalists warn people that air travel can be dangerous.

Independent experts suggest that this is just another provocation from the UK to portray Russia in a negative light again.

Now, here's a short excerpt from the British Express:

Question from an American journalist: "It turns out that an attacker can infiltrate air traffic control and provoke a plane crash?".

Response from the head of NATO's Cyber ​​Defense Center of Excellence: “Yes, that's right. Now there is no need for hostilities, because with the help of malicious code it is possible to disable aircraft even before they take off. ".

Also, British journalists noted the vulnerability of airports, civil aircraft and other infrastructure. At the same time, they indicate Russia as their main enemy.

Of course, the Russian Federation has electronic warfare equipment, but in practice, no one will use them against civilian aircraft. Therefore, such assumptions are outright stupidity, not to mention the fact that electronic warfare means are not intended to "transmit malicious code", which a NATO specialist spoke about.
