Russia Will Test Its Ability to Disconnect from the Internet

The nascent RuNet is meant to allow the country to survive an attack — and Putin to monitor and control the population.

Russia will test its internal RuNet network to see whether the country can function without the global internet, the Russian government announced Monday. The tests will begin after Nov. 1, recur at least annually, and possibly more frequently. It's the latest move in a series of technical and policy steps intended to allow the Russian government to cut its citizens off from the rest of the world.

==================================================================
Given that Russia will potentially cut off its internet to future attacks, the rest of the world could be concerned about its cyber defensive posture. Enabling and using TPMs in billions of enterprise computers could protect organizations from a Russian cyber attack. This has been an often overlooked security chip, but should not be since it is a international standard.

Rather than waiting for the government to mandate an enabled TPM for the cyberhealth for organizations, the leading technology companies in the world (TCG) could emphasize the benefits of enabled TPMs in the event of a cyber attack.

Wave has solutions that could be very helpful in protecting organizations from potential cyber attacks!! November 1 is a week away.
