Suspect in bomb threats covered his tracks
An Israeli police official says the suspect in a wave of bomb threats against Jewish targets in the US used sophisticated methods to hide his tracks.
Yaniv Azani, head of technology in the Israeli police’s cyber unit, says the suspect used “several different means to camouflage the various layers of communication mechanisms” to carry out the calls.
Nimrod Vax, co-founder of US-Israeli cybersecurity firm BigID, says the phone calls required a certain level of sophistication, but were “not too difficult” for an experienced hacker.
