Hackers supporting Iran claimed to be behind today’s Microsoft outage issues while a collective that has urged “epic war” allies to stand as unified “mujahideen” on the cyber front is vowing to target more U.S. companies and conducting fundraising to beef up hackers’ infrastructure.
An Iranian group closely linked to CyberAv3ngers that has previously focused on operational technology targets also made a chilling yet unverified claim of responsibility for a deadly explosion at a Nebraska biofuels plant this past summer.
While many of the site attacks reported in the past several days by pro-Iran hackers have still been focused on Israel and Gulf nations allied with the United States, the Islamic Cyber Resistance in Iraq – 313 Team said last week that it launched a cyber offensive in response to Romania’s Wednesday approval of a request by the U.S. to use the country’s bases for refueling planes and equipment for surveillance and satellite communications.
313 Team also claimed Friday that it temporarily knocked down the donaldjtrump.com site, posting a screenshot with a 503 error that they said proved their claim. Sylhet Gang-SG, a pro-Iran Bangladesh-based hacking group, posted on their Telegram channel that “we saw team downd donaldjtrump.com so we took fun on second website of trump lol,” posting a screenshot of trump.com.
