Malek Team is an Iranian-linked threat actor that emerged on October 8, 2023, following the Israel-Hamas conflict. This group is assessed with moderate confidence to be tied to Iranian military intelligence and has been observed recruiting anti-Israel hacktivists, particularly from South Asia and the Middle East. Their primary motivation is to conduct cyber espionage and cyberattacks aimed at causing disruption and gathering intelligence that aligns with Iranian geopolitical objectives, primarily targeting Israeli institutions. A distinguishing characteristic of Malek Team is their practice of publicly claiming responsibility for their attacks and releasing compelling evidence of exfiltrated data, including videos of university classes, admission interviews, and scans of victims' passports and other sensitive documents, often through platforms like Telegram.
