Russia’s Cyberwar Against Ukraine Is Every Bit as Strategic as its Ground Offensive

http://www.nextgov.com/cybersecurity/2014/03/russias-cyberwar-against-ukraine-every-bit-strategic-its-ground-offensive/79792/?oref=ng-relatedstories

My Topic:

Korean government should change and develop cyber diplomacy policy.

What I hope to learn from this source:

I want to know the way that Russia has controlled the Crimean Peninsula by using cyber diplomacy and the importance of cyber diplomacy.

Notes:

1. mobile phones are under attack -The head of Ukraine’s security service says that the mobile phones of Ukrainian lawmakers are under attack by equipment located in Russian-controlled Crimea.

2. were repeatedly blocked -According to Ukrtelecom, some “key telecom nodes of the company in the Crimea were repeatedly blocked by unidentified uniformed people” on March 1. Ukrtelecom said, “unknown people seized several telecom nodes in the Crimea” and damaged its fiber backbone cable:

3. completely isolated - “If this IXP were severely limited or shut down, which may have already happened, the Crimean Peninsula would be completely isolated, allowing Russia to control internet activity in Crimea,”

Final Thoughts:

This source can support my argument that cyber diplomacy is important and has influence a lot. By showing how Russia control the Crimean Peninsula, this source can tell how the Korean government prepare for not being attacked such as this attack by Russia and the Korean cyber diplomacy proceed.
