US President Joe Biden on Saturday said that he “was not sure” whether Russia was behind the recent ransomware attacks that compromised cybersecurity of more than 1,000 companies and other managed-service providers up to the fourth of July. Speaking to the reporters from a cherry farm in Central Lake during a trip to Michigan on Saturday, the US president asserted that he “will respond” if the Russian President Vladimir Putin is somehow linked to these attacks, of which, the source currently remains unclear as an investigation led by US intelligence committee is underway.
