The FBI has warned that an Iranian government-tied hacker group, which operates from an Iranian cybersecurity company called Emennet Pasargad, is engaged in operations to hack and leak material and may target American organizations.
In 2020, Emennet was involved in attempts to influence that year’s U.S. elections.
