Defending Against Iranian Cyber Threats in the Wake of Operation Epic Fury 

Situation Report: Operation Epic Fury (Updated March 5, 2026) — A coordinated U.S. and Israeli military and cyber campaign struck Iranian targets and heavily disrupted Iran's internet connectivity, while numerous hacktivist and Iran-aligned state groups have launched or prepared cyber operations in response. The report documents large-scale attacks (BGP/DNS/SCADA targeting), compromised apps and government sites, active phishing/SMS campaigns delivering mobile malware, and the presence of destructive wipers and espionage tooling; it urges organizations in energy, government, and critical infrastructure to validate defenses using released assessment templates and observed payload samples.
