A wave of cyberattacks followed the U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran, with researchers documenting over 1,000 DDoS attacks on 500+ organizations in 16 countries.

A coalition of cybersecurity firms—including Radware, Orange Cyberdefense, Flashpoint, Palo Alto Networks Unit 42, and CloudSEK—has reported a wave of hacktivist attacks following the U.S.-Israel campaign against Iran.

The Statistics:
Between February 28 and March 4, researchers documented 1,000 DDoS attack claims targeting organizations across 16 countries. While the total number of claims may appear high, Radware notes that the activity is "highly lopsided." Just three groups drove the volume: Keymous+ and DieNet (together accounting for nearly 15% of activity), alongside NoName057(16), which alone accounted for 25% of the total.

Geographic Distribution:
The Middle East was the primary theater, absorbing over 1,000 attacks, which accounted for 77.2% of global activity. Within the region, the concentration was as follows:

· Israel: 49%
· Kuwait: 25%
· Jordan: 20%
· Other Middle Eastern countries: 6%

Europe was the next most targeted region, receiving 22.8% of the global activity.

Attack Methods and Notable Groups:
Attack methods included DDoS, website defacements, and hack-and-leak operations. The initial attack was launched by Hider Nex (Tunisian Maskers Cyber Force). Other active groups mentioned in the reports include Nation of Saviors (NOS), Conquerors Electronic Army (CEA), Sylhet Gang, 313 Team, Handala Hack, APT Iran, Cyber Islamic Resistance, Dark Storm Team, FAD Team, Evil Markhors, and PalachPro. Pro-Russian groups such as Cardinal and Russian Legion also claimed breaches against Israeli networks.

Hackers Exploit Israel Camera Vulnerabilities to Surveil

Multiple hacking groups have been targeting internet-connected surveillance cameras across Israel and other Middle Eastern countries since the war began on February 28.

The countries targeted in these digital intrusions—Israel, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, the UAE, Cyprus, and Lebanon—are the same ones that have witnessed significant missile activity linked to hackers as part of an ongoing operation targeting Israel.

Compromised servers contained live CCTV feeds from Jerusalem, allowing the groups to surveil Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Jerusalem.

This recent camera targeting by several hackers serves as an early indicator of potential follow-on

The exploited vulnerabilities include:

· An improper authentication vulnerability in Hikvision IP camera firmware (CVE-2017-7921)
· A command injection vulnerability in the Hikvision web server component (CVE-2021-36260)
· An OS command injection vulnerability in the Hikvision Intercom Broadcasting System (CVE-2023-6895)
· An unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability in the Hikvision Integrated Security Management Platform (CVE-2025-34067)
· An authentication bypass vulnerability in multiple Dahua products (CVE-2021-33044)

MuddyWater Launches New Intrusion Campaign Using Custom “Dindoor” Backdoor

The group 'MuddyWater' has launched a new wave of intrusions targeting U.S. and allied networks, deploying a custom backdoor dubbed Dindoor as regional tensions continue to spill into cyberspace. The campaign has impacted a U.S. bank, a U.S. airport, a Canadian non-profit, and the Israeli operations of a software supplier serving the defense and aerospace sectors. Activity began in February and escalated through March.

Dindoor is notable for leveraging the Deno JavaScript runtime, providing operators with a flexible framework to execute cross‑platform JavaScript payloads on compromised systems. During the operation, the attackers attempted data exfiltration from the targeted software company using the Rclone utility to transfer files to a Wasabi cloud storage bucket. Additionally, they deployed Fakeset, a separate Python-based backdoor downloaded from Backblaze-hosted infrastructure and signed with a digital certificate previously linked to other MuddyWater malware families, including Stagecomp and Darkcomp.

This activity is part of a broader surge in pro‑Palestinian and Iranian cyber operations linked to the ongoing Middle East conflict. The hacktivist collective 'Handala Hack' has been abusing Starlink IP ranges to probe internet‑facing systems for misconfigurations and weak credentials.

The region’s evolving cyber ecosystem now operates as a sustained instrument of influence and capability, favoring repeatable access techniques—such as credential theft, password spraying, and social engineering—over the use of rare zero‑day exploits. Both APT groups and hacktivist collectives preparing for espionage and information operations toward more disruptive or destructive activities in the coming days.
