As per the report, the compromised companies span various industries, encompassing sectors such as insurance, healthcare, manufacturing, telecommunications, information technology, technology, retail, automotive, legal services, financial services, as well as architecture and civil engineering.

The Israeli regime has, on numerous occasions, taken actions against Iran, either directly or by supporting and encouraging the individuals or groups responsible for such actions.

As far back as 2012, The Washington Post reported that the US National Security Agency (NSA), in collaboration with the CIA and "Israel's" military, had cooperated in launching malware known as Stuxnet against Iran's nuclear facilities.

In response, Iranian hacking groups are believed to have carried out operations targeting Israeli interests.

In late 2020, the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz claimed that a group of highly skilled hackers, described as Iranians, had penetrated as deeply as the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and a major aerospace company within the Israeli occupation.
