Medical technology company’s data hacked by pro-Iran group
A pro-Iran hacking group has claimed responsibility for a cyber attack on Stryker, a U.S. medical technology company, according to SITE Intel.
The hackers, a group called Handala, allegedly deleted company data from over 200,000 systems, servers, mobile devices, and extracted 50 terabytes of "critical data," SITE Intel said.
Handala said the hack was motivated by the U.S. airstrike that struck an Iranian girls' school in Minab as motivation for the cyberattack, SITE Intel said.
Handala has claimed similar breaches amid the Iran war, including against a Saudi oil and gas company, an Israeli insurance company and the Israel Defense Forces.
