An opinion piece published by Al Jazeera highlights that the ongoing Iran conflict is expanding the scope of cyberwarfare to critical infrastructure. The author points to recent incidents, including a cyberattack that reportedly forced a British power plant offline for four days and a series of attacks on water and wastewater systems across at least 12 US states. While the US government has not publicly accused Iran, reports suggest hacker groups linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) are involved. The article warns that these incidents demonstrate critical vulnerabilities that governments and businesses worldwide need to urgently address, as cyberthreats are shifting from data theft to controlling physical systems.
