Iranian Hacker Group Targets Aviation, Software Firms

Nimbus Manticore, an Iranian advanced persistent threat (APT) group, continues targeting aviation and software companies with newly upgraded hacking tools. The group has maintained its cyber operations during and after recent US military activities against Iran. This represents an ongoing threat to critical infrastructure and technology sectors globally. Indian organizations in aviation and software development should enhance their security measures, including employee awareness training, network monitoring, and incident response protocols. Organizations are advised to patch vulnerabilities promptly and implement multi-factor authentication to mitigate risks from such state-sponsored cyber threats. Source: SecurityWeek.
