Hackers Group Claims To Have Broke Into IDF & Stolen Documents

Anonymous claims a successful cyberattack against the Israeli Defence Force (IDF), gaining access to 20 gigabytes of data, which allegedly includes over 233,000 military documents in various formats, like PDFs, Word files, and presentations.  The IDF considers the authenticity of the claim dubious and suspects a psychological warfare tactic. They reason that their layered, secure computer systems were likely not breached directly, and if a breach did occur, they suspect it compromised civilian systems instead.  Hackers released a video containing purportedly genuine excerpts from IDF presentations, but the IDF dismisses this as a possible psychological warfare tactic, casting doubt on the authenticity of the material.  The IDF emphasizes the robustness of its computer systems, which are secured with multiple layers of protection, which makes it highly unlikely that the hackers breached the IDF’s core network directly.  If any IDF information was compromised, it was more likely due to unauthorized access to civilian systems, potentially in violation of IDF regulations.
