Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine has raised the risk of a global cyber war — and turned Russia into even more of a pariah at summits to secure the world’s digital infrastructure.
And the Russian diplomats appear to be reading the room: “At coffee breaks, they take their coffee sitting in front of their microphones when everybody else is milling around at tables. They grab their lunch and sit alone,” Fick said. “The isolation is palpable.” Tensions between Russia and the rest of the international community were on display during a recent meeting of cybersecurity diplomats in Vienna at the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. The Russian delegation was barely tolerated, Fick said. And it went beyond just not welcoming them to the lunch table.
