DENIAL-OF-SERVICE DISRUPTS FINNISH GOVERNMENT SITES DURING ZELENSKYY SPEECH

A denial-of-service attack knocked the websites for Finland’s defense and
foreign ministries offline Friday, the government there said, just as Ukrainian
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke to the Finnish parliament.
The disruption also coincided with Finland weighing a bid to join NATO and the
same day the Finnish defense agency said a Russian aircraft violated its
airspace.
The Finns didn’t point the finger at any particular culprit, nor did the foreign
ministry answer a request for comment on the responsible party. But
denial-of-service incidents — where attackers overwhelm a website with fake
traffic to disable it — have emerged frequently against Ukrainian targets dating
back to before the Russian invasion, with Ukraine explicitly blaming the
Kremlin, sometimes with the U.S. backing up those allegations. Russia has also
been hostile toward NATO expansion.
“A denial-of-service attack was launched against the Foreign Ministry’s external
website on Friday, April 8, 2022, which began at about noon,” reads a Google
translation of a statement from the ministry. “The situation has returned to
normal at around 1 p.m. The State Department has taken steps to curb the attack,
along with service providers and the [Finnish cybersecurity agency].”
A Twitter account for the government of Finland said the attack’s impact was
limited. “Due to website protection, main part of the sites continued to work
normally during the attack,” reads a Twitter translation.
In his Friday speech, Zelenskyy praised Finland for its assistance in resisting
the Russian invasion and called for further help.
