The National Cyber Directorate publishes a report outlining cyber attacks against Israel since the start of the war against Hamas, concluding that such attacks have grown in number and intensity throughout the hostilities.
At the war’s start, the attacks were unsophisticated, focusing on defacing websites and attempts to steal information. Gradually, the report finds, the attacks became more focused and aimed at causing actual damage and disrupting the activities of organizations.
Cyberattacks have originated from some 15 different groups, linked to Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas, some of which collaborated with one another.
Other cyber operations focused on spreading disinformation online.
