renewable energy sources are under
0:02
particular threat as part of growing
0:04
hybrid Warfare some of the technology is
0:06
relatively new so it's more vulnerable
0:08
and according to Nato officials
0:10
renewable energy is targeted as it
0:12
represents a shift away from often
0:14
Russian fossil fuels Yun chiping energy
0:17
in Sweden provides 40% of all energy to
0:20
the region through renewable energy
0:22
Hydro wind and solar power for
0:25
186,000 people it's working alongside
0:27
NATO under the Nordic Pine exercise
0:30
helping participating Nations prevent
0:32
and react to cyber and other hybrid
0:35
attacks the attacker is more and more
0:37
Advan and I think some years ago people
0:41
could say no we are so small they will
0:43
not hit us today the system the BS Etc
0:48
they can hit anybody it's we can talk
0:51
about if if you leave your system open
0:53
without any kind of firewall it can take
0:56
seconds before you are hit because they
0:58
find you cyber attacks from ransomware
1:01
and also disinformation from either
1:03
State and non-state groups is
1:05
increasingly common as a means of doing
1:07
harm to one's enemy without direct
1:11
battlefield cyber attacks by Russia
1:14
during the invasion of Ukraine 10 years
1:16
ago were a major wakeup call to the
1:18
renewable energy sector NATO and its
1:20
Partners now very much focus on the
1:22
threat of hybrid Warfare and the impact
1:24
this has in society ransomware is a
1:27
business the other thing is you know the
1:29
depend dependency of electricity
1:31
everywhere we we can't be without it so
1:35
in that case you can disturb a society
1:37
very much by disturbing the electricity
1:40
and U I think if you disturb the society
1:44
you will make people scary as well what
1:46
is going on when we get when will we get
1:48
the electricity back again Etc so I I
1:52
think it's a very very good way to
1:53
create the mess if you would like to the
1:56
NATO Le Nordic Pine exercise is for the
1:58
private and public sector including
2:00
research institutes it concludes that
2:02
the challenge of hybrid war in
2:04
particular cyber attacks is best met
2:06
with prevention and preparedness and key
2:08
to that they say is constant
2:10
communication between governments the
2:12
private sector the general public and
2:14
the military command sha Murray EUR news
