Russian President Vladimir Putin convened a cybersecurity meeting with top officials on October 14, according to the Kremlin. The discussion was prompted by growing concerns over cyber threats rather than recent Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian data centers. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov denied any direct connection between the meeting and the drone strikes that targeted three Yandex data centers and one Sberbank center in the past week. Participants included government ministers, security officials, the head of Sberbank, and central bank governor Elvira Nabiullina.
