released on 2018-01-11 @ 07:00:06 PM
On January 4, the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace published “Iran’s Cyber Threat: Espionage, Sabotage, and Revenge,” an extensive report on Iranian cyber strategy over the past decade. One of the unique aspects of the publication is that it is informed by forensic research about actual attacks, largely those against human rights advocates and journalists. Through these primary sources, we were able to make evidence-based conclusions about the who, what, and why of Iran’s campaigns.
