When cyber success forces defensive shutdowns

Tom Uren and Amberleigh Jack talk about how cyber operations were used in the first hours of the US-Israeli attack on Iran. They were instrumental in the attack on Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, but they didn’t last long. The Iranian regime implemented an internet blackout within four hours of the first bombs.

They also discuss how threat actors are using AI. It’s not game-changing so far, but it is very much altering the balance between attack and defence.
