Russian Ambassador expressed interest in dialogue with Canada on cyber attacks

"It will be useful to launch a dialogue on cyber attacks after the words of (Russian President Vladimir. -

) Putin that Canada is in second place in the world after the United States in terms of the number of cyberattacks carried out from its territory," RIA Novosti Stepanov quotes.

He stressed that Russia, "including from the Canadian authorities, has more than once made unsubstantiated claims in" hacker attacks "or categorically stated that cyberattacks are being carried out from Russian territory."

Earlier, Ann Nyberger, Deputy Adviser to the President of the United States for National Security, said that the topic of cybersecurity was on the agenda of negotiations of CIA Director William Burns in Russia.
