How Israel-Iran Cyber War Has Changed The Face Of Modern Warfare- Detox technologies

2020 has not only shown what environment can do to the humankind, it has also made us realize what Cyber attacks are capable of, and if we compare the disastrous impacts of both, we’ll come to an unerring conclusion that latter is unquestionably more threatening to Man. World Economic Forum recognized this fact and included Cyber-attacks in Top 10 risks in terms of likelihood and impact in its Global Risks Report 2020.

This year, Israel and Iran engaged in an unofficial Cyber war which has already escalated to a height never before seen in the cyber world and still the scope for more remains with Hacking groups proclaiming the ‘worst is yet to come’. After more than a decade of Stuxnet’s arrival, Iran is again under the scanner and this time it is even more deadly!

Stating the most recent headlines — “Iran group claims attack on 28 Israeli railway stations” of 31st July 2020. This group — Cyber Avengers claim that they hacked into more than 150 industrial servers of railways in Israel, affecting 28 trains and subway stations. The attack was purportedly carried out between 14–24 July 2020 and severely damaged the infrastructure. The motto was to showcase how hackers could have led to collisions of trains, had they wished for.

This simply states how a bunch of hackers in 10 days could have possibly killed more than what a Global Pandemic killed in half a year across the globe. Even more worrying part is that it is one of the attacks in series of attacks which are taking place between Israel and Iran since April 2020 when Iran allegedly hacked into the Water and Sewer treatment plants of Israel. At that point also, millions of lives were in danger since attackers could have released more than the stipulated amount of Chlorine in water to make in poisonous and that could have killed a huge population.

Israel replied in the same tongue and on May 9, Shahid Rajaee Port in Bandar Abbas near the Strait of Hormuz remained down for almost the entire day. The port suffered massive Denial of Service attack. Some reported that Iran’s ports were badly affected for several days post this attack.
Also, Natanz Nuclear Facility in Iran suffered fire and explosion in first week of July which too is attributed to a cyber-attack from Israel.
