Iran to blame for cyber-attack on MPs’ emails – British intelligence
This article talks about the following: In June 2017, the email accounts of many MPs were compromised and this blame has been put on Iran. With this recent development, the ties of United States and Iran has also taken a toll. The attacks have been named by the American Intelligence as a Brute Force attack done deliberately to tap communications of MPs with their constituents. Attackers carefully planned the cyber-attack on those email accounts that have weak passwords. These attacks have further spilled the relations of Iran with the United States with President Donald Trump abandoning the Iran Nuclear Deal
It will be interesting to see how things unfold in the future. How can government organizations be more protective and equipped with Cyber Threat measures? If the government plans to implement security measures for stronger firewalls, how will this impact the operations of MPs?
