Russia may disconnect from the global internet very soon,as part of test of its cyber defence

 russia to disconnect from global internet
Russia is planning to unplug from the internet.If this happen ,data passing between Russia citizen and organisation will tay inside the rather then being transfered internationally.A draft wa introduced in parliament mendating technical changes in the last year.However many observer think that the creation of the Russia internet private is a further step towards a goal of duplicating the great firewall of China.


What actually Russia is planning?

Russia is planning to temporarily disconnect from the internet as a part of experiment to test its cyber defence capacity and to intended to analyse the country’s preparation for a draft
law mandating a “sovereign” internet.All country internet network will be carried by its own network.
Any network traffic that leaves Russia would be forced to go through the registered exchange point,
that is subject to regulate by the state communication regulator Roskomnadzor.
The test is going to be happen before 1st april, which is not exact date has been set.


Digital Economy National Program( name of the draft),requires Russia internet service provider to
ensure that it can oprate in the ocassion of foreign acting to isolate the online country.
The main points of the law included:-
Russia is building its own version of the internet’s address system ,known as DNS ,it can locate or
operate if any internationally server are cut.Currently there are  12 organisations oversee the root
server for DNS and none of them are in russia.


The test is  also expected that they can Direct Data to government control routing point. The test is
also expected that they can direct data to government controlled routing point.These will filter traffic
so that data sent between Russia reaches its destination point for foreign computer is discard.
Russia wants all its domestic networks to pass through it.


Its aim is to protected the Russian networks from the US,which has an offensive cyber security
stretegy and list Russia as one of the major source of hacking.


Why does this move make any sense:-


 The introduction of the plan after NATO stepped up its annual Cyber War games against Russia.
The US, UK, and you have also written to sention Russia over recent cyber attack. the  EU last year
also said it would strengthened The Silence of its member state in the digital domain after the
Netherlands said it got for AC intelligence agent trying to hack into the Global chemical weapon was
the headquarter while it was investigating Russia last  April, World War III will mostly default on
computer. so indeed it make sense for Acer to check if it can defend itself again a joint EU-US attack.


There are some experts said that failed to see the logic behind the government drive to build a
Domestic internet capable of functioning in the event of a move by western countries to isolate it
from the world wide web.

The disconnection of Russia from global web would mean that we are already at war with everyone.
The plan  to temporarily disconnect from the global internet. unexpected that a Rasiya had tried and
failed to unplugged from internet in 2014 nothing has changed since there from a technical point of
view he said. it will take list another 5 years before Russia had even hypothetical change of a
solution its segment of internet from the rest of the world. in the meantime North Korea is breathing
a Singh of relief that it cyber army is not being blamed for the latest hack attack.


Internet freedom declined in Russia for the sixth year in a row in 2018 there are following
governments effort to block the popular messaging app Telegram and numerous legislative proposal
aimed at restricting online  increase censorship.
Restriction to virtual private network where passed in June 2017. In November 2017 the government
move to designate media outlets receiving foreign funding as foreign agent. 3 July 2018 eurovelo
came into force which required telecommunication operator and companies to store content of wizards
online communication for up to 6 months in addition to metadata and provide the federal security
service with unfettered access to both.


Blocking Telegram in April 2018 was only the biggest taken by the government repressive approach
to internet. While other communication platform such as LinkedIn remains blocked in Russia,
blocking a platform as popular as Telegram with about 10 million you Russian user where  weird.
Authorities restricted the platform because it resources to provide an encrypted key to FSB.
Content subjected to blacklist of removal includingLGBTI aspiration, information on the conflict in Ukraine, and material related to political position. money
doesn't have recently their frustration known over the governments increase online reparation. in
summer of 2017 multiple Time Station across the country focus on internet freedom and defended
state for the following activity following effort to block Telegram in April over 14000 people  protested
in the country.
