Ukraine makes cyber defense "revolution" amid Russian attacks – French General Bonnemaison 

Euractiv reported the information citing the statement of the head of the French Cyber Defense Command (COMCYBER) Aymeric Bonnemaison.

According to him, Ukraine has strengthened "its cyber defense capabilities", which allowed it to make "a real revolution by moving upmarket in its computer defense fight."

Last December, during a closed-door hearing in the National Assembly, the content of which was made public on Thursday, General Bonnemaison explained that Ukraine had been working on its vulnerabilities with Western cyber powers, primarily the US.

He called this support "decisive" and "approximation of Ukrainian standards and procedures to Western models."

This “makes it possible to share quickly the indications of an attack and the first technical tools to protect against it," the general stressed.

Euractiv informed that the French general was pleased that Russian cyber attacks had "been much less impactful and effective than expected". In his opinion, Ukraine could have been "brought to its knees." However, the contrary happened, now the country has a defensive advantage, which constitutes" a real paradigm shift." It allows the Ukrainian state to deter, reorganize and "use other systems to rebound, all with significant creativity and innovation" in the field of cyber defense.
