Explainer: Iran's Secret Cyber Army Is Already Inside America's Infrastructure

from The Iran War Report

In 2012, Iranian hackers wiped 35,000 computers at Saudi Aramco in a single night — no bombs, no soldiers, no warning. Today, with the US and Iran in an active shooting war, that same cyber army is probing American power grids, water treatment plants, and financial networks right now. And there is no Geneva Convention for what happens next — no red lines, no rules, no off-ramps. Everything you need to understand Iran's invisible digital war and why it explains the war happening right now. New to the conflict? Start here, then subscribe for daily briefings.
