Recent U.S. military strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities have led to targeted cyberattacks from Iranian-backed hackers against U.S. banks, defense contractors, and oil companies. Although these attacks have not yet resulted in widespread disruptions, experts warn that escalating tensions could lead to more significant cyber warfare. As geopolitical adversaries consider cyber capabilities as a cost-effective alternative to traditional military responses, there is concern that reliance on digital technology may expose vulnerabilities in U.S. infrastructure. Authorities remain vigilant against further attacks as threats are escalated by groups like Mysterious Team.
"We just showed the world: You don't want to mess with us kinetically... But we are wide open digitally. We are like Swiss cheese."
"We increase attacks from today," said one pro-Palestinian hacking group known as Mysterious Team, confirming intentions to target U.S. interests.
