Defense Minister Le Drian comments expressed concerns about cyber attacks against defense systems and warns of hacking campaigns on the upcoming elections.
According to the Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian France defense was targeted by thousands of attacks in 2016. France thwarted more than 24,000 cyber attacks against Defence systems last year.
是的,谈到网络安全任何国家或者组织都不能置身事外,包括法国以及即将举行的法国大选。
去年一年,法国就已经挫败过超过24000起网络攻击事件,当然法国国防部长最担心的还是黑客会攻击其国的国防系统(包括其无人机系统),同时攻击该国即将举行的总统大选。
过去的三年来,法国遭受到了越来越严重的网络攻击,对其国家的关键基础设施造成了严重的威胁。同时国防部长警告该国的政府与民众,不能太天真,幻想网络攻击会自动停止。应该积极采取措施,预防类似2016年美国大选遭受的网络攻击事件在该国重演。
在法国国内,如何对待俄罗斯,是有不同意见的。有人倾向加强与俄罗斯的合作,而有部分官员则坚决反对。
这个从2014年爆发的俄罗斯和乌克兰关于克里米亚的危机开始,当时法国官方谴责了俄罗斯的行动的;不仅如此,法国还谴责俄罗斯在叙利亚针对阿勒坡的轰炸(据称导致大量无辜民众伤亡)行动。
一些美国的安全企业发布安全报告称,来自俄罗斯的APT攻击组织参与了攻击法国的电视台的网络攻击行动,这些安全企业的报告声称,虽然攻击代码中显示的是ISIS等,但这些都是试图误导研究人员,从其整个攻击的作业手法(统称TTP)看,其实是俄罗斯在后台操控。

I found very interesting the posture of the French Minister, he is aware that foreign hacker could break into national infrastructure, but he also contemplate the possibility to strike back the attackers.He said the French army’s number of “digital soldiers” would be doubled to 2,600 by 2019, with Le Drian confirmed that number of “digital soldiers” working for the French defense would be doubled to 2,600 by 2019, 600 cyber experts will joint to the cyber army.
“Le Drian said that in case of a cyber attack, the country could respond in kind as well as with conventional weapons.” reported the Reuters Agency.
国防部长在电视镜头前的坚定动作以及言语暗示:如果该国再遭到类似的网络攻击,那么准备以牙反牙,进行反制。该国目前已经组建了网军,准备实施这一计划。网军的规模预计到2019年会增加到2600名。
点评:从克里米亚冲突的角度看,网络战是传统地缘战争的延续:边界模糊(可以靠猜)、更加复杂(发起时间不确定)、纠葛与绵长。 |
