Cyber Defense Assistance and Ukraine

In an era of international instability, the safety and resiliency of our digital existence faces deep challenges. Such uncertainty has undermined the ability of governments to counter aggression in the cyber domain. In this growing vacuum, the conduct of the private sector’s cyber defense assistance will both change and grow in importance.

Among Western nations and their allies, the private sector is the dominant producer, operator, and protector of the digital realm. Over the past three years, companies from the West have both acted singularly and banded together to provide cyber defense assistance to Ukraine. This support has not only bolstered Ukraine in the face of the Russian re-invasion but also protected the digital environment globally. The need for Western companies to lead these efforts globally will likely increase in the years to come. 

Cyber Defense Assistance and Ukraine, a follow-up to our 2023 report, provides lessons from the US Cybersecurity Group to guide these efforts.
