Iranian Hackers Target Trump’s Truth Social Platform
Following U.S. military strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, the Iranian-aligned hacking group “313 Team” claimed responsibility for a Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack on Donald Trump’s Truth Social platform. The attack, confirmed by the Center for Internet Security and social media watchdogs, resulted in a service outage shortly after Trump announced the strikes. This action aligns with the Department of Homeland Security’s warning of potential retaliatory cyberattacks from Iran, specifically targeting U.S. and Israeli infrastructure. The 313 Team is known for targeting various entities globally.
