"The group also said that it was making available for download emails and other documents from Patel's account. Many of the records appeared to relate to his personal travels and business from more than 10 years ago."
"Handala is a pro-Iranian, pro-Palestinian hacking group that earlier this month claimed credit for disrupting systems at Stryker, a Michigan-based medical technology company."
"The Justice Department singled out Handala in an announcement last week in which it said it had seized four web domains tied to Iranian hacking schemes and the threatening of dissidents."
The pro-Iranian hacking group Handala claimed to have hacked FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email account, releasing years-old photographs and documents. The group posted images of Patel, including personal travel records and a work resume, many of which were over a decade old. The FBI confirmed the breach of Patel's account, although the timing of the hack remains unclear. Handala has previously claimed responsibility for cyberattacks in retaliation for U.S. actions against Iran, highlighting its role as a proxy group for Iranian cyber operations.
