Iran-linked hackers may target US firms and critical infrastructure, US government warns
Iranian-affiliated hackers may target U.S. companies and critical infrastructure operators, particularly defense organizations with holdings or relationships with Israeli research and defense firms, according to an advisory from U.S. government officials Monday. The FBI, National Security Agency, the Department of Defense Cyber Crime Center (DC3), and the Department of Homeland Security's civilian cybersecurity defense wing said in a statement issued alongside the advisory that while there are no indications of a coordinated Iranian-linked malicious cyber campaign so far, organizations should ensure their defenses are up to date. "Despite a declared ceasefire and ongoing negotiations towards a permanent solution, Iranian-affiliated cyber actors and hacktivist groups may still conduct malicious cyber activity," the agencies said in the advisory.

Judge Halawi questions advisor to former Economy Minister Amin Salam in embezzlement and money laundering case
Fadi Tamim, an advisor to former Economy Minister Amin Salam, is under investigation by Beirut's First Investigative Judge, Bilal Halawi, for suspected embezzlement of public funds, as well as forgery and money laundering, according to the National News Agency. As of now, the judge has refrained from issuing a detention order or releasing Tamim on bail, as the interrogation is still ongoing and awaiting the arrival of other defendants. Judge Halawi also heard testimony from two witnesses in the case. He is set to question Elie Abboud, head of the Association of Certified Public Accountants and a defendant in the case, on Tuesday and will hear from representatives of insurance companies as witnesses.
