Israel Braces for Cyberwarfare With Palestinians
After a series of cyberattacks and incidents of hacking from Palestinians, Israel has amped up efforts to protect its vital computer systems, reports Adnan Abu Amer.
A few days ago, Uzi Moscovitch, chief of the Center for Computer and Information Systems in the Israeli Computer Services Directorate, surprised security circles by declaring that Israel is preparing for information warfare with Palestinians and Arabs by establishing a new operations room to monitor and curb cyberattacks in an orderly manner.
This is a clear indication that Palestinian hackers have managed to inflict serious damage on Israel, which was unable to fire any bullets or missiles in retaliation for this cyberattack, which Israel has dubbed the hackers shadow war.
