They can simply begin to target Ukraine's energy infrastructure. Something so simple, yet something they haven't really done.
Maybe this threat is overestimated and the unintended consequences could trigger NATO's article 5. This would be consistent with everything we have seen with Russia's military.
Josh Lospinoso, Co-founder and CEO of Shift5, questioned Russia’s ability to execute more effective cyber attacks than previously witnessed. “It is unlikely that Russian hackers have any new tools or tricks to launch more effective cyberattacks against Ukraine,” he said.
Citing Ukraine’s previous successful attempts in warding off Russian cyber terrorism, the Shift5 co-founder impugned the source’s credibility, “Russia is having more success with missiles through the air than attacks on the internet, so the idea of Russia putting more energy behind cyberattacks does not compute.”

Why would it trigger NATO's article 5 exactly? Ukraine is not part of NATO.
Also, by go after Ukraine's energy infrastructure, I mean fire ballistic missiles with high-tonnage munitions at all key factories, service stations, transport stations, generation and transmission stations. Basically, make it lights out over Kiev, and do this for the winter.

Here is the NATO article 5
Quote:
The FBI and CISA warned that Russian industrial malware could spill to other countries, producing unintended consequences and escalating the conflict.
In July, U.S. President Joe Biden warned that disruptive cyber attacks against critical infrastructure could trigger a military response.
NATO had also warned that “malicious cumulative cyber activities” could invoke Article 5.
Ukraine is warning of the missile attacks...then there is the question how many precision guided munitions does Russia really have?? Those are awfully expensive bombs and reports are that Russia is running low...so could they really pull off an effective attack?? We will see.
Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov said on Telegram that the early-morning explosions were the result of missile strikes in the center of the city. He said that the blasts sparked fires at one of the city’s medical institutions and a nonresidential building.
Destroying a bridge that actively supplies war materials to a war front is not an act of terrorism, it has a clear military impact and Russia will feel it over the next whatever months it takes to repair that bridge.

Act of terrorism because it was done out of uniform and not in accordance with usual rules of engagement.
