Check Point CEO says Iran hack targeted Israelis
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleGil Shwed, the CEO of Israeli cyber-security giant Check Point, says that two months ago his company identified a computer hack that originated in Iran.
The attack targeted many public figures worldwide, including some in Israel, he adds, according to Israel Radio.
Shwed says 1,600 people received infected emails, and more than a quarter of them opened the messages, thus unintentionally downloading spyware to their personal computers.
