Georgia Under Cyber Attack

The reports in today's news that Russia is once again suspected to have resorted to DDoS attacks to jerk the chain of one of their former Soviet Union members should not really surprise anyone, least of all the Georgian Government. It is what they do after all - as both Estonia and Lithuania can testify to their cost. With such a track record it seems pretty obvious that any Country that is on a collision course with Moscow should ensure that their cyber-defences are in place before they decide to escalate the problem.
