Summary:
Evidence shows that Iranian intelligence and military services are involved in cyber activities targeting Western countries. Leaks have revealed a network of entities associated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) engaged in cyber-attacks. Four intelligence and military organizations linked to the IRGC, including the IRGC's Electronic Warfare and Cyber Defense Organization, have been identified. These agencies have relationships with Iran-based cyber contractors and are associated with offensive cyber activities, including targeting major US financial institutions and healthcare providers. The leaks also show that some contractors export their technologies for surveillance and offensive purposes. US government sanctions are making it harder for these cyber companies to evade detection.
