UK hunts hackers overseas
Britain secretly deploys cyber forces overseas to disrupt attacks before they happen. The force, known as the “Hunting Force,” operates in countries that agree to host it and targets states or cybercriminals, according to Mike Fayers, commander of the Cyber and Electromagnetic Defence Force. Fayers warned that artificial intelligence has cut the time available to address vulnerabilities from days to minutes. His warning comes amid attacks on France’s blood bank and retailers, which spoiled food after the temperature of their refrigerators was raised to 80°C. The UK Ministry of Defence said it had dealt with 90,000 cyberattacks linked to international sources over the past two years—twice the number recorded in the two years before that.
