Bundesher -Risikobild – “Electricity and the purpose of hybrid warfare”

This statement has now been verified in the interview with Krone.tv. Conclusion: it is no longer just a classic military confrontation, as currently taking place in the Ukraine war, where two forces meet in the front line. But it is hybrid warfare. This must be achieved that the resilience of a state, resilience, is shaken. But the coherence of the European countries must also be broken up and achieved that the common sanction policy against Russia is not continued.

Internet communication in Focus
But now we work in detail the hybrid warfare? Vartok: “An attempt is made to spy on the means of the espionage flagrant weaknesses of the critical infrastructure in Austria, so that they can then influence them with a suitable measure”. About which areas of critical infrastructure this would influence, Vartok says: “Electricity and it. And of course not to forget the overall internet communication. We are confronted with the fact that Subsse cables have been destroyed recently and that the connection between European countries, but also the connection of Europe to the other continents, has also been shaken.

Russia and China perpetrator?
Can you identify the origin of these attacks and the perpetrators? Vartok: “Cyber ​​attacks are very difficult to find out in their authorship. But of course we know that Russia is the first nation that concentrated on the other European countries as part of the hybrid warfare. But of course there are other actors: Chins is currently a big competitor and will be a much stronger competitor in the future. Especially in Indo-Pacific. And that is why there are of course other actors that we all have to protect against.
