Iranian hacking group "Anonymous For Justice" released video footage today claiming to have breached Israel's top financial institutions, including the central bank and stock exchange. The group says it has accessed sensitive documents from multiple government offices.
Bank of Israel quickly dismissed the claims, stating all documents shown in the video are publicly available. "Our systems show no signs of infiltration," a bank spokesperson said.
The announcement follows recent cyber attacks on Israeli credit companies last month. Israel's National Cyber Directorate is investigating the claims, though officials note that the central bank's security systems are among the country's most robust.
