On Friday, March 23, nine Iranian threat actors were indicted for stealing massive quantities of data from universities, businesses, and governments all over the world.
If you’ve been following our blog (or the news), you already know the actors are associated with an organization called the Mabna Institute, and are responsible for stealing more than 31 terabytes of data over the past four and a half years. To put that number in context, you’d need to cut down more than 1.5 million trees to make enough paper to print out all of the stolen data.
