While I don't doubt that Iranian backed groups are more likely to target US based assets, I've been reading these reports for the last couple days and the "guidance" coming out of the US Government (USG) has been incredibly lackluster. CISA is basically saying, "use MFA and don't use default passwords." No shit, should I also plug in the power cord? It'd be great if some sector of the USG would publish something useful. Like a rundown of TTPs or even IoCs. The USG no doubt has a ton of SIGINT on these groups, and I understand that they can't share all of it; but, fuck me could you at least put something more useful out than "use MFA"?

No, they can't. DOGE gutted basically everything that made the government useful to regular people. And it's the Trump regime's fault we're in this mess in the first place.

They're not going to admit fault, even indirectly. We're on our own.
