Russian hacking threatens Lithuania's banks

The cyber threats that Lithuania is facing have a geopolitical aspect to them, says Vasiliauskas.

VILNIUS: Politically-motivated cyber attacks from Russia pose the biggest threat to Lithuania's financial system, a survey of financial institutions conducted by the Baltic country's central bank showed on Tuesday.

The survey comes amid accusations of Russian hacking activity in other countries, including during the presidential elections in the United States and France. Russia denies the accusations.
