Why are the critical infrastructures are important?
Having a blackout of internet services occurs not only in the movies if necessary countermeasures are not taken.Russia -allegedly- has been using the critical infrastructures of Ukraine as a Guinea pig for more than 10 years. (Yes, even before the Russian invasion.) This time, Russia -allegedly- committed another cyber attack to the biggest mobile telecom operator of Ukraine. This attack caused more than half of Ukraine's population (appr. 22 million) to go offline including the emergency air-raid system in the capital region.
This was the most significant attack by Russia which hit Ukrainian communication infrastructures since February 2022.
Well, are the critical infrastructures of your country prepared for such cyber attacks? Have you ever thought what would you do in a crisis where you won't have any internet connection? Sounds scary, huh? A little exaggerated movie but I can advise the movie Die Hard 4.0 for that.

"Kyivstar, Ukraine's biggest mobile telecom operator, has suffered a cyberattack that took out cell service for more than half of Ukraine's population and cut Internet for millions — as well as knocking offline the emergency air-raid system in the capital region.
Company CEO Oleksandr Komarov, speaking on a Ukrainian news broadcast as reported by Reuters, confirmed the attack on Tuesday, adding that the telco's IT infrastructure is "partially destroyed," and that he has no timeline on restoration."
