US authorities announced charges against seven Iranian hackers for attacking computer systems at banks and a dam in New York. The hackers managed a number of distributed denial-of-service attacks launched against 46 U.S. banks between 2011 and 2013. Investigators believe the seven men, which are still at large, are skilled hackers working for two security firms close to the Government of Teheran and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The activity of Iranian hackers is increased in a significant way in the last couple of years, in December 2015 Symantec has uncovered the Cadelle and Chafer groups.”]
