Russia launched an attack on Viasat just before invading Ukraine, the UK and its allies say.
Russia was behind a cyber-attack targeting American commercial satellite internet company Viasat, UK and US intelligence suggests.It caused outages for several thousand Ukrainian customers - and affected windfarms and internet users in Central Europe.Viasat provides high-speed satellite broadband to commercial and military customers.
And the UK's National Cyber Security Centre said it was "almost certain" Russia was behind the attack.The war in Ukraine has seen the most sustained offensive of cyber-operations one country has launched against another, a British intelligence official says.But it has taken time for a fuller picture to emerge - such as this major attack on satellite communications now linked to Russia.So far though, Russia has not launched wider attacks against Western targets.
