“As we projected from the end of 2022 through 2023, we saw an increase in the number of publications about data breaches,” he said.

Earlier, the head of the department of security problems in the information sphere of the Russian Security Council, Alexei Petrov, said that cyber attacks on Russian infrastructure are mainly carried out by foreign intelligence services.
As Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko reported, more than 65 thousand cyber attacks on critical information infrastructure facilities were repelled in Russia in 2023.
