Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accuses Iran of launching cyber-attacks on its country with a daily basis.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed that Iran launched cyber-attacks on Israel on a daily basis, but its experts are able to block them.

“Iran attacks Israel on a daily basis,” Netanyahu declared during a cyber conference in Tel Aviv.

“We monitor these attacks, we see these attacks and we foil these attacks all the time.”

The Israeli Prime Minister added that today countries need to combine an effective cyber defence with a prolific and advanced cyber security industry.

“Any country can be attacked today with cyber-attacks and every country needs the combination of a national cyber defence effort and a robust cyber security industry,” Netanyahu said.

“I think Israel has that… in ways that are in many ways unmatched,” he said.

A few days ago, Israel launched a massive attack on Iranian targets in Syria, after Iranian fighters fired a surface-to-surface rocket at the northern Golan Heights. The Israeli air force hit an airport in Damascus and killed 12 pro-regime fighters.

In recent months, the operations of Iran-linked APT groups in the Middle East were increased as never before.

Early January, security experts at FireEye uncovered a DNS hijacking campaign that was targeting government agencies, ISPs and other telecommunications providers, Internet infrastructure entities, and sensitive commercial organizations in the Middle East, North Africa, North America and Europe. According to the experts, the campaign is carried out, with “moderate confidence,” by APT groups linked to the Iranian Government.

In 2018, multiple reports published by Palo Alto Networks described TTPs adopted by Iran-linked APT group OilRig (aka APT34) that targeted entities in the Middle East.
