It was a pleasure to present at the information security forum this year in Kyiv. Ukraine has a unique resilience to cyber threats. Events which would otherwise knock countries out for a week, are fixed in days, while people go about their business.

A cyber attack has taken down the online booking system for Ukraine’s trains.

All over the country people are lining up to buy tickets in person. Staff are working extremely long hours to serve everyone.

There's still something about this deal that feels extremely exploitative of Ukraine and damaging the reputation of the United States. Allies should not have to bargain for "the right to fight on".

The NASAM air defense system takes has taken down over 900 targets in Ukraine since November 2022, with 94% accuracy.
