Putin horror warning over 'own goal' attack on UK coming back to haunt Kremlin
VLADIMIR PUTIN may not launch a major cyberattack against the UK for fear of the damage it could cause to Russia, creating an "own goal" situation, according to an expert.
Dr Melanie Garson said offensive cyberwarfare was inherently risky and that, once an attack is launched, it could be difficult to control. She also noted the UK could launch its own cyber attacks, but may not do so for the same reasons. Dr Garson is a lecturer on conflict resolution and international security specialising in cyberattacks at University College London (UCL).
Cyberwarfare is also largely untested compared to traditional tactics. Digital systems are interconnected and blowback from a cyberattack can do as much damage to the country launching the attack as its intended target, according to Dr Garson.
She said: “The system is fundamentally leaky - the pipelines are leaky. You just don’t know whether it will blow back and negatively affect you. We are so interconnected that the possibility that it can come back and hit you, you’ll sort of have an own goal, is very, very high.
“There has been a lot of speculation about Russia’s offensive cyber capability, and why it’s not being used more in the conflict. There are two main reasons.
