Germany must learn to cope with Russian cyber attacks — Merkel

Cyber attacks from Russia are now so common that Germany must learn to cope with them as part of daily life, Chancellor Angela Merkel says, after Europe’s top economy suffered its largest ever online assault.

Merkel says she did not know who was behind the attack that left almost a million Deutsche Telekom clients offline, but added that “such cyber attacks, or hybrid conflicts as they are known in Russian doctrine, are now part of daily life and we must learn to cope with them.”
