UK minister criticized over ‘hyperbolic’ speech on Russia’s cyber capabilities

The speech by Pat McFadden was described as “ridiculous” by Kevin Riehle, a lecturer at Brunel University London and former counterintelligence analyst in the U.S. government, and as “a step backwards” by James Sullivan, the director of the cyber research group at the think tank Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), alongside several other experts in the field.
