Iran has upped its cyberattacks: It’s time for Biden to strike back
NY Post
Iran has dramatically stepped up its cyberattacks against the United States since Oct. 7, prompting little to no response from the White House.
Like the rockets, drones and anti-ship missiles from Tehran’s proxies, Iranian cyberattacks will only grow worse until President Biden restores deterrence.
To do that, he must go on cyber offense.
After Hamas’ brutal Oct. 7 massacre, Iranian hackers stepped up their attacks on the Jewish state, quickly refining their methods to intimidate Israelis, create confusion and undermine international support for Israel.
Iranian hacking groups are increasingly specializing in particular components of a cyber operation — reconnaissance on the targets, gaining access to a victim’s network, launching malware or conducting psychological operations.
That division of labor makes these groups more potent and difficult to track and counter.
