CYFIRMA Research - Caught in the Crossfire: How International Relationships Generate Cyber Threats
Manage episode 399837931 series 3472819
In times of conflict, the cyber realm becomes a battleground too! Instances like the Russia-Ukraine war & Israel-Gaza conflict show how hacktivists are playing a role. They launch attacks using DDoS tools, deface websites, and even mentor others to disrupt organizations. In the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict, hackers are wreaking havoc online too. They're creating custom tools, sharing tutorials on Telegram & GitHub, and targeting countries opposing their agenda. These attacks aren't always sophisticated and mostly target small businesses lacking cybersecurity measures. But they can still cause disruptions. It's a wake-up call for stronger cybersecurity, especially in times of global tension.
