欧盟遭遇的网络攻击大幅增加

持有有关欧盟28个成员国以及单一货币管理的敏感数据的欧盟，已升级安全措施，对抗日益加剧的威胁。高级公务员已被告知利用电邮加密技术，同时欧盟委员会正与北约(Nato)扩大网络安全合作，后者表示，过去一年针对它的网络攻击已变得“更有技术含量”。

“It’s clear that many institutions across Europe and more widely, and that includes the European Commission, are subject to a continuously increasing number of cyber attacks from different sources,” Sir Julian King, the EU security commissioner, told the FT. “These threats are persistent, they are aggressive, and more and more dangerous and potentially destructive.”

“显然，欧洲乃至其他地区的很多机构，包括欧盟委员会，正遭遇来自不同源头的持续增多的网络攻击，”欧盟安全专员朱利安?金爵士(Sir Julian King)告诉记者，“这些威胁持续存在，它们咄咄逼人，并且越来越危险，可能造成巨大破坏。”

The most damaging cyber attacks are those that seek to “undermine the trust in our democracies”, he added.

他补充称，最具破坏性的网络攻击是试图“破坏对我们民主政体的信任”。

Russia is at the centre of concern in Brussels about cyber security, but the commission declined to comment on the suspected source of attacks. “Different attackers share and use the same tools and methods and hide their identities by using anonymous servers,” a spokeswoman said.
