It seems there is a pattern here. They attacked Danish power plants using hosts in Ukraine and Poland, and then started to attack the USA and Hong Kong from Denmark. It looks like a silly provocation as these DDoS attacks didn't seem very effective.

What is really worrying is the SolarWinds attack - it allowed Russians to plant deep roots in many big orgs around the world and it might take years to uproot them all.

Assuming they can all be found. Chances are that some of these will simply remain undetected.

Did it? You know it was the Russians?
