He also <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thehill\/status\/1506048257423773697\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">suggested<\/a> that it would be their &#8220;patriotic duty&#8221; to invest as much as they could to improve their technological defenses. <\/p>\n<p>The warning was based on preparatory activity identified by U.S. intelligence that could precede a cyberattack. <\/p>\n<p>\n\t&#8220;I have previously warned about the potential that Russia could conduct malicious cyber activity against the United States, including as a response to the unprecedented economic costs we\u2019ve imposed on Russia alongside our allies and partners,&#8221; said Biden in a statement. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s part of Russia\u2019s playbook,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Today, my administration is reiterating those warnings based on evolving intelligence that the Russian Government is exploring options for potential cyberattacks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The White House urged companies to improve and update their cyber defenses as a precaution. <\/p>\n<p>White House deputy national security adviser for cyber and emerging technology Anne Neuberger <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/administration\/599072-white-house-warns-russia-prepping-possible-cyberattacks-on-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told<\/a> reporters at a media briefing that the Biden administration was prepared to respond to a cyberattack from Russia. <\/p>\n<p> \u201cAs the president has said, the United States is not seeking confrontation with Russia, but he has also said if Russia conducts disruptive cyberattacks against critical infrastructure, we will be prepared to respond,\u201d Neuberger claimed. <\/p>\n<p>Biden also said that Russian President Vladimir Putin might lash out in a cyberattack because the invasion into Ukraine is not going according to their timeline.  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The more his back is against the wall, the greater the severity of the tactics he may employ,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kaitlancollins\/status\/1506033843937198084\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Biden said. <\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span><\/span>Here&#8217;s more about the warning from the White House: <\/h3>\n<p class=\"shortcode-media shortcode-media-youtube\">\n        <span class=\"rm-shortcode\" data-rm-shortcode-id=\"d7efec24c6bcd7ae9320ff4f7205908e\">[embedded content]<\/span><br \/>\n\t<small class=\"image-media media-caption\">White House warns of Russian cyberattacks<\/small><br \/>\n\t<small class=\"image-media media-photo-credit\"><br \/>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=r9_YDTetop4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.youtube.com<\/a><br \/>\n\t<\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden issued another warning of the possibility of a Russian cyberattack on critical infrastructure in the U.S. \u201cThe magnitude of Russia\u2019s cyber capacity is fairly consequential,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":489,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1393589","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1393589","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/489"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1393589"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1393589\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1393589"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1393589"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1393589"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
