"Israeli authorities report that they have launched thousands of wiper attacks on Israeli companies, successfully hitting about 50. The hacking of security cameras has aided in targeting drone and missile strikes."
"Analysts express surprise that Tehran has not struck more decisive strategic targets during the current conflict, despite its history of attacking critical infrastructure."
"Possible explanations for the lack of decisive attacks include early Israeli strikes weakening Iran's capabilities and Tehran throttling its own hackers by limiting internet access for domestic censorship."
"Experts warn that if Iran's hackers are given time to regroup, they could develop the capabilities to deliver more decisive attacks, highlighting the uneven nature of US defenses."
Iran has executed thousands of cyber attacks against Israeli companies, successfully impacting around 50. These attacks have included hacking security cameras to facilitate drone strikes. Analysts note that Iran has not targeted critical infrastructure as decisively as in the past, possibly due to weakened capabilities from Israeli strikes or internal internet throttling. There is speculation that Iranian hackers may be gathering intelligence for future attacks. US defenses are seen as uneven, and experts warn that Iran could develop more effective capabilities if given time to regroup.
