"Like the rest of the world, we are horrified, angered and saddened by the images and news coming from the war in Ukraine and condemn this unjustified, unprovoked and unlawful invasion by Russia," wrote Smith. "We believe we are most effective in aiding Ukraine when we take concrete steps in coordination with the decisions being made by these governments and we will take additional steps as this situation continues to evolve."
Microsoft says one of its key goals is to protect Ukraine's cybersecurity, as well as help the people in Ukraine by providing technology and financial support for key nongovernmental organizations. Microsoft detailed the steps it's taking to protect Ukraine from cyberattacks in a blog post from February.
