Techworld – Iranian claims that hackers broke into servers belonging to the Israeli Airports Authority (IAA) and stole sensitive data including flight plans have been dismissed by a local security expert as part of a bogus attempt to conduct “psychological warfare”.
On Wednesday, the pro-Government FARS news agency quoted claims made by the shadowy Islamic Cyber Resistance Group (ICRG) on its website (not currently available) that it had breached iaa.gov.il servers for several months, extracting enough important data to, if the group so wished, crash aircraft in the care of the Authority’s system.
