In the tenth episode of The Cybersecurity and Geopolitical Podcast from Security magazine, Ian Thornton-Trump, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Cyjax, and Philip Ingram, CEO of Grey Hare Media, take a close look at the Russian invasion of Ukraine through the lens of conflict in the Middle East.
“If we want to see what’s going on in the Ukraine and the Russian conflict, we only need to look back at what has transpired between the various players in the Middle East,” said Thornton-Trump. From determining Russia’s current trajectory in Ukraine via the nation’s playbook in Syria to comparing the root of Russia’s border aggression, the security leaders draw parallels between the invasion and previous events in the Middle Eastern region.
