Cybersecurity analysts confirmed to the publication that users of the Bade Sabah had received notifications around the time of the strikes, but have not been able to identify the source of the hack. \u201cAt this point, we genuinely do not know who is behind them, whether it was Israel or other anti-government Iranian groups,\u201d told Narges Keshavarznia, digital rights researcher at the Miaan Group. No group has so far claimed credit for these attacks.<\/p>\n According to Reuters, internet connectivity in Iran was majorly disrupted at 0706 GMT, and then again at 1147 GMT, with only minimal connectivity remains. Doug Madory, director of internet analysis at Kentik confirmed he same in a post on Twitter. Media reports also said that cyber operations struck a variety of Iranian government services and military targets to limit a coordinated Iranian response.\u201cAs Iran considers its options, the likelihood increases that proxy groups and hacktivists may take action, including cyberattacks, against Israeli and U.S.-affiliated military, commercial, or civilian targets,\u201d told Rafe Pilling, the director of threat intelligence with cybersecurity company Sophos to Reuters.A former top FBI cyber official and current senior vice president at anti-ransomware firm Halcyon said that hacker activity in the Middle East has increased and that his company has also seen calls to action from known pro-Iranian cyber personas who in the past have carried out hack-and-leak operations, ransomware attacks and distributed denial-of-service attacks (DDoS).The report says that although Iran is often mentioned by the American cyber officials alongside Russia and China as a threat to American networks, Tehran’s recent responses to attacks on its soil have been muted. In June, after the U.S. struck Iranian nuclear targets, there was little sign of the disruptive cyberattacks.<\/div>\n\nInternet connectivity in Iran badly disrupted<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
