The United States has created a group on Russia in cyberspace

The Director of the US National Security Agency, the head of the American cybercommunications, Paul Prison, created a group to counteract Russia in cyberspace. According to Bloomberg, he said this at the security forum in Aspen, Colorado.

“I created a group in Russia, a small group,” said Prisos. “This corresponds to what the intelligence community really did in 2016-2017.”

Okanson admitted that Moscow has a "great potential" in Cyberva. According to him, the American special services are called to react to this. “And if we are designed to do this, there is no doubt - we will provide it,” added the director of the NSA.

Hackers of unfriendly states "steal intellectual property, personal data, information about employees, sow discord in our society and trying to disrupt our elections," said Okazon.

According to the director of the NSA, the United States should not "stand on the sidelines" in the cyberspace, but "turn the power of the nation against opponents." “We should have some kind of method of action, how we are going to compete with them in places such as cyberspace,” the head of the special services explained.

On June 18, The New York Times reported that the Pentagon has expanded the powers of cybercommunications , allowing it to conduct preventive cyber attacks on the computer networks of opponents.

The changes were adopted in the spring of this year. Government hackers were allowed to show any "non -enabled" activity in foreign networks to prevent cyber attacks, studying the capabilities and weaknesses of the enemy. "Continuous impact delivers tactical inconvenience to our opponents and increases strategic costs, forcing them to allocate resources for defense and limit attacks," the new strategic concept of cybercards says.

Another Pentagon document, published in May last year, allows you to use cyber attacks to prevent the launch of nuclear missiles.

The publication noted that changes in the defense strategy may lead to a deterioration in US relations with Russia, China, DPRK, as well as with all countries with nuclear weapons.
