Four Iranian banks suffer limited cyberattacks with no customer data leaks



On the 13th local time, the Iranian State Bank Coordination Committee stated that the systems of four banks, including Bank Melli Iran, Iran Export Bank, and Iran Commercial Bank, experienced outages on that day. The technical team immediately initiated necessary preventive and protective measures upon discovering the anomaly to safeguard customer data and banking infrastructure security. After a detailed technical investigation, the outage was confirmed to be caused by a limited cyberattack targeting these four banks. Currently, there have been no unauthorized accesses to customer information or data leaks. The security reinforcement and recovery work of the banking systems are progressing rapidly. $BTC $ETH $SOL

The bank says no customer information has been leaked, but system outages are scary enough on their own; it's still safer to keep on-chain assets under your own control.

This matter in Iran is quite interesting; a state-level attack only caused limited disruptions, indicating that centralized systems' emergency responses are also quite effective. However, permissionless networks like $BTC are indeed not afraid of single points of failure.

Traditional financial systems being attacked actually highlights the value of decentralized networks even more.
