My apologies, this update was delayed. Here we are, it is November 2022 and this is the 20th cybertracker, not something I expected when I started putting them together. It’s a lot of work but feedback tells me it is valuable to a wide-range of people so It is worth…

Update 19. 2022 Russia-Ukraine War — Cyber Group Tracker. October 12. It’s October 2022 and the Russia-Ukraine war continues, as a result the cybertracker is still continuing to make sure I capture all groups involved.
