"Operation Cleaver", as labelled in a report by American firm ''Cylance Inc.'' in late 2014, is a cyberwarfare covert operation targeting critical infrastructure organizations worldwide, allegedly planned and executed by Iran. Cylance's report was later tacitly acknowledged in a confidential report by Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), though Iranian officials denied involvement in the operation. == Cylance report == In December 2014, California-based cyber security firm ''Cylance Inc.'' published results of a 2-year investigation,〔 an 86-page technical report, indicating that an operation, called "Operation Cleaver", has targeted the military, oil and gas, energy and utilities, transportation, airlines, airports, hospitals and aerospace industries organizations worldwide. The title "Operation Cleaver" alludes to frequently uses of the word "cleaver" in the malware's coding. According to the report, over 50 entities in 16 countries have been hit by the campaign, based in the United States, Israel, China, Saudi Arabia, India, Germany, France and England among others.〔 Cylance's research does not name individual companies, but ''Reuters'' reports citing "a person familiar with the research" Navy Marine Corps Intranet, Calpine, Saudi Aramco, Pemex, Qatar Airlines and Korean Air were among the specific targets.〔 Stuart McClure, Cylance founder and CEO believes that the hackers are sponsored by Iran and have ties to Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Operation Cleaver」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
