Russia has lost the information war against Ukraine and cannot gain an advantage in cyberspace, says UK intelligence chief Jeremy Flemming. In his column for The Economist, he writes that both Kyiv and Moscow understood at the beginning of the invasion that the struggle of information was as important as the struggle at the front..

"

He noted that Russian attacks in digital and cyberspace were unsuccessful from the very beginning..

" Information operations proved clumsy and were interrupted by the publication of intelligence information.. And the attempts of the Russian military to destroy the digital infrastructure of Ukraine and sow discord through digital means have stumbled upon the steady, professional and effective resistance of Ukrainian specialists,"

The head of intelligence also praises Ukraine's cyber resistance in this war, admitting that it is the most successful in history..

“Working under constant pressure against a very powerful adversary, a team of industry professionals, intelligence professionals, security services and sometimes ordinary citizens worked side by side to prevent, respond and correct the consequences.. This defense turned out to be stronger than expected in the Russian Federation. Ironically, their military activities contributed to their failures in cyberspace - Russian attacks disrupted the networks they wanted to infect.. They pushed Ukrainians to use alternative and safer means of communication, and this improved their resilience,"

He also stated that Vladimir Putin lost the information war in Ukraine and the West..

" But while this is cause for rejoicing, the impact of Russian disinformation elsewhere in the world should not be underestimated,” Flemming writes.. – This is another front of the war in Ukraine and its consequences will be felt as long as the war lasts. We must counter organized state disinformation campaigns and ensure that they fail to dampen international outrage at Russia's actions.
