HawkEye Conflict Intelligence: Active Threat Advisories

As the regional conflict intensifies, Iranian state-sponsored actors and hacktivist groups are actively targeting organisations across the GCC and EMEA. HawkEye’s threat intelligence team is tracking these threats in real time and publishing advisories as intelligence develops.

Two advisories have been released so far.

The first covers Operation Epic Fury, a campaign attributed to Iranian APT groups conducting coordinated, sophisticated attacks against regional infrastructure and organisations.

The second focuses on Handala and the Stryker Wiper, hacktivist groups deploying destructive wiper malware designed to cause maximum disruption to systems and data.
