Russia's cyberattacks in Ukraine have been tame so far, but experts warn things may escalate and target the US

The Russian government hacking group Sandworm recently attempted to attack Ukraine's power grid, according to cybersecurity firm ESET and Ukrainian officials, targeting an energy company in Russia's latest attempt to destabilize the country.

The malware attack, which was revealed this week, failed to damage the system or plunge Ukraine into electrical blackouts, according to Ukrainian officials. Instead, it is part of a growing number of Russian cyberattacks that Ukraine has prevented since the Kremlin launched its full-scale invasion in late February.
