BlockBeats News: On June 18th, according to OnchainLens, the mastermind behind the hacking attack on the Iranian cryptocurrency trading platform Nobitex is suspected to be the Israeli hacker group "Gonjeshke Darande".
Gonjeshke Darande "claimed responsibility for the attack and stated that" within the next 24 hours, the Nobitex source code and internal network information will be released, and any assets within the trading platform will be at risk. ''
It is reported that the hacker group "Gonjeshke Darande" means "predatory sparrow" in Persian, and is known for conducting cyber attacks on Iran's critical infrastructure, such as gas stations, steel companies, and banks (such as Bank Sepah). Although the organization claims to be an independent hacker group, the technical complexity of its attacks and the target selection against the Iranian regime suggest that it may be associated with the Israeli government or military, such as the 8200 unit of the Israeli military intelligence agency. The Israeli authorities maintain a vague policy towards this and have never officially acknowledged their connection with the organization.
