I recently found myself in a conversation about Poland’s declaration that it is in a state of cyber war with Russia. As a US Army Combat veteran, I’m here to dive into the details. Poland’s Minister of Digital Affairs recently accused Russia of spying on Poland and Belarus, with the goal of infiltrating Poland’s government and infrastructure. This comes on the heels of a recent cyber attack on the Polish anti-doping agency, which coincides with the hostilities surrounding the Summer Olympics.

It’s not a secret that Russia has a history of using cyber attacks and disinformation campaigns to achieve its goals. One notable example is the Russian doping scandal, where Russian athletes were found to be using performance-enhancing drugs. The Olympics were a major focus of this controversy, with many athletes and officials claiming that the Russian government was trying to delegitimize the competition.

Poland has also seen an uptick in cyber attacks, with over 400,000 instances reported in the first half of 2024 alone. This is a significant increase from the 370,000 reported in all of 2023. These attacks are not limited to Poland, however, and it seems that the closer you are to the conflict, the more likely you are to be targeted. Russia’s efforts to buy influencers and amplify their narratives on social media are also concerning, as they seek to muddy the waters and sway public opinion.

I want to emphasize that disinformation is not just about hacking, but also about manipulation. Russia has been caught using AI-generated narratives on social media to create fake news stories and amplify false information. This is not just about organic growth of these fake profiles, but also about using bots and algorithms to amplify the reach of a post or message. Russia’s goal is to create a sense of chaos and uncertainty, making it difficult for people to discern fact from fiction.

I want to conclude by saying that Russia’s actions are a serious concern, and as a government, we need to be proactive in addressing these threats. As a private individual, I’ve seen firsthand the devastating effects of Russian cyber attacks, and I urge everyone to be vigilant and educated on these issues. Additionally, I would like to thank my supporters, including the Combat Vet News.com community, for their continued support. Let’s stay vigilant and keep pushing for truth and transparency.
