Iran’s Involvement in the IDFLeaks CyberCampaign







The IDFLeaks campaign, initiated in December 2023, exposed the personal information of over 2,200 Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) personnel, primarily targeting the Israeli Air Force. The hacktivist group Hunt3r Kill3rs, suspected of links to Iranian cyber operations, played a pivotal role in disseminating the data through Telegram and other platforms. While Hamas was initially thought to be responsible for compiling the dossiers, deeper analysis suggests that Iran provided the organizational and technical infrastructure to amplify the campaign, utilizing platforms like Eitaa, an Iranian Telegram alternative.
