A long anticipated spring offensive from Russia will now include cyberattacks targeting the Ukraine from a hacking group with Russian ties, wrote Julian E. Barnes, David E. Sanger and Marc Santora for the NY Times, citing a Microsoft (MSFT) report out on Wednesday. "The report also said that Russia appears to be stepping up influence operations outside Ukraine, in a push to weaken European and American support for continuing military aid, intelligence sharing and other assistance to the Ukrainian government," added the NYT story. Publicly traded companies in the space include Barracuda (CUDA), Check Point (CHKP), Crowdstrike (CRWD), CyberArk (CYBR), F5 Networks (FFIV), Fortinet (FTNT), Imperva (IMPV), NortonLifeLock (NLOK), Okta (OKTA), Palo Alto Networks (PANW) and Qualys (QLYS).
