I've been wondering if we'd see a cyber campaign emerge in this conflict. To my knowledge Iran seems to have pretty advanced cyber capabilities and increasingly fewer reasons to hold back. Gloves-off cyber war doesn't sound good to me. The US CISA already been cut back, has lost "virtually all of its top officials"^, doesn't have a permanent director, and is operating at a further reduced capacity because of the DHS shutdown.

Iran isn’t alone!! They are a quad along with China, Russia, and North Korea.

I forget all the details but a hacker group associated with Iran already hacked the infrastructure of a major US health care tech company
