FBI warns US businesses of potential cyberattacks from Iran

There’s still some debate over the scale of Iran’s reported Operation Cleaver hacking campaign, but the FBI is clearly taking it seriously. According to Reuters’ copy of a confidential report, the federal law enforcement agency is warning businesses of advanced Iranian hacks targeting American defense, education and energy firms. The alert stops short of accusing Iran of a cyberwarfare campaign, but notes that the attacks usually come from two connections within the country. There isn’t exactly a huge list of suspects here.
