The Bank of Israel held a meeting to brief financial service companies on how to defend against an imminent cyberattack by Iran's Anonymous for Justice group. The meeting reviewed recent cyberattacks in Israel and provided guidelines for dealing with the situation. Israeli officials believe the attack will most likely be mounted on Friday and will likely be a DDoS attack against financial systems. The National Cyber Directorate is working to thwart or reduce potential damage. Despite the threats, there is no need to panic and withdraw money from banks as necessary defenses are in place.
