NSA chief paid secret visit to Israel last week

NSA chief Admiral Michael Rogers paid a secret visit to Israel last week to discuss closer cooperation with the IDF’s cybersecurity intelligence unit 8200, Haaretz reports.

Rogers addressed cooperation with Israel, particularly against cyber attacks by Hezbollah and Iran, according to a senior American official who spoke to the paper.

The US has seen “intensified cyberspace operations by state and nonstate actors,” Rogers told the US House of Representatives panel earlier this month, according to a Department of Defense reported.
