We want to offer our service, CyberAlerts.io, for free, for any organisations founded in Ukraine.

We want to do this to show public support for Ukraine, and help protect Ukrainian organisations from Russian, and other, cyber attacks. Our instant Vulnerability Intelligence platform and feeds will allow Ukrainian organisations to mitigate and patch security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.

Ukraine is not only fighting a kinetic war but is also under constant cyber attack. According to the United Kingdom's National Cyber Security Center (NSCS):

we have seen significant cyber activity in Ukraine, with sustained intent from Russia to destroy or disrupt Ukrainian government and military systems
Preparing for the long haul: the cyber threat from Russia
Although the UK has not experienced severe cyber attacks in relation to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, now is not the time for complacency.

The US' CyberSecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) report from 2022 warns US organisations to be prepared and "to adopt a heightened state of awareness and to conduct proactive threat hunting" in response to Russia's aggression in Ukraine. The report also includes some of the vulnerabilities exploited by Russian state actors to gain initial access:

  • CVE-2018-13379 FortiGate VPNs
  • CVE-2019-1653 Cisco router
  • CVE-2019-2725 Oracle WebLogic Server
  • CVE-2019-7609 Kibana
  • CVE-2019-9670 Zimbra software
  • CVE-2019-10149 Exim Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
  • CVE-2019-11510 Pulse Secure
  • CVE-2019-19781 Citrix
  • CVE-2020-0688 Microsoft Exchange
  • CVE-2020-4006 VMWare (note: this was a zero-day at time.)
  • CVE-2020-5902 F5 Big-IP
  • CVE-2020-14882 Oracle WebLogic
  • CVE-2021-26855 Microsoft Exchange

While recently, Ukraine's top cybersecurity officials warned of the urgent need to bolster, not only their defensive capabilities, but also their offensive capabilities.

Ukraine seeks to bolster offensive cyber capabilities amid rising threats from Russia
A senior Ukrainian national security figure said the country is working on strengthening its offensive cyber capacity and is encouraging its European partners to join these efforts.

It's clear that Ukraine needs Cyber Security support.

And that's why we are offering our Advanced plan, which, at the time of writing, costs €300 per month, absolutely free of charge for organisations founded in Ukraine. No strings attached.
