Pro-Iran Hackers Claim Microsoft Outage, Threaten Wider US Corporate Attacks
Hackers supporting Iran, including the Islamic Cyber Resistance in Iraq – 313 Team and Cyber Islamic Resistance, have claimed responsibility for recent significant cyberattacks, including a substantial outage affecting Microsoft 365. These groups are vowing to target more U.S. companies in response to political actions and are actively fundraising to enhance their cyber infrastructure. While many attacks have focused on Israel and allied Gulf nations, some have broadened to include Romania and U.S. entities, with one group making an unverified claim about a deadly explosion at a Nebraska biofuels plant last summer.
