Iran-Linked Hackers Vow to Continue Cyberattacks Despite Ceasefire

Hacking group Handala announced it would temporarily postpone attacks on US infrastructure but continue targeting Israel, stating "the cyber war did not begin with the military conflict, and it will not end with any military ceasefire." Cybersecurity experts at Nozomi Networks anticipate an increase in attacks on US organizations during the lull, as hackers shift from regional targets to deeper infiltration of American networks. Handala previously claimed credit for disrupting US medical manufacturer Stryker and hacking FBI Director Kash Patel's personal email.
