Companies Warned On Iranian Cyberattacks
The escalating conflict between Iran and Israel has cyber experts concerned that cyberattacks could spill over into places conventional weapons never would. Iran has been a significant cyber threat for years. The U.S. has said hackers linked to the country have broken into critical infrastructure systems in Israel and other Middle Eastern and Western nations. It is considered one of the major cyber adversaries of the U.S., alongside Russia, China and North Korea. Targets have included sensitive companies such as a water utility in Aliquippa, Pa., in 2023. Late last year, a joint advisory from U.S., British, Israeli and Canadian intelligence agencies warned that Iran-linked hackers were targeting industrial systems and outlined their tactics.

Trump says he hopes Israel and Iran can strike deal
WASHINGTON, June 15 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he hopes Israel and Iran can broker a deal but said sometimes countries have to fight it out first. Talking to reporters as he left for the G7 summit in Canada, Trump said the U.S. will continue to support the defense of Israel but declined to say if he asked the U.S. ally to pause strikes on Iran. "I hope there's going to be a deal. I think it's time for a deal and we'll see what happens. Sometimes they have to fight it out, but we're gonna see what happens," Trump said. Israel and Iran launched fresh attacks on Sunday, killing and wounding civilians and raising concerns of a broader regional conflict, with both militaries urging civilians on the opposing side to take precautions against further strikes.
