Belarusian hackers increasingly acting as proxies for Russia amid war in Ukraine

Belarus-linked hackers are increasingly coordinating their cyber operations to align with Russia's strategic interests in Ukraine, according to researchers. This development reflects a shift in the operational alignment between threat actors in the region.

Why it matters: Organizations supporting Ukraine or operating in affected regions face heightened risk from a larger pool of coordinated state-aligned attackers; defenders should monitor for TTPs associated with both Russian and Belarusian threat actors.
