The Ukrainian government in 2020 launched Diia, a digital app that combines identity card, passport, license, vaccination record, registrations, [[insurance]], health reimbursements and social benefits. Fedorov was praised by the [[World Economic Forum]] (WEF) for his work in establishing the Diia app.<ref>https://www.weforum.org/people/mykhailo-fedorov</ref> Fedorov called for a crew of developers, designers, marketers and “security specialists” to join a volunteer “IT Army” — with 300,000 volunteers having been attracted. The online army's tasks include sharing the [[IP address]]es of Russian [[website]]s and companies, in order for them to be targeted by [[DDoS]] (directed denial of service) attacks in an effort to knock them offline.<ref>https://archive.is/CJ0TM</ref>
