Israel foils major attack on defense industries

Yoav Zitun|
The Director of Security of the Defense Establishment foiled on Wednesday a cyber attack on Israel's leading defense industries.
According to a preliminary investigation, the attackers approached industry workers with tempting job offers, through the "LinkedIn" network, in order to infiltrate their computer networks.
An investigation reveals that the attempted attack was carried out by an international hacker syndicate known as "Lazarus", which is backed by a foreign country.
