Israel National News<\/a> – June 29, 2022<\/p>\n

The deputy commander of the IDF\u2019s signal intelligence, or \u201cSIGINT\u201d unit, also known as Unit 8200, spoke at the Cyber Week Conference hosted by Tel Aviv University this week.<\/p>\n

The address marked the first time an officer from the unit has made a public appearance, though military censors barred publication of the officer\u2019s full name, referring to him only by his first name, Uri.<\/p>\n

Uri described Unit 8200\u2019s cyber defense operations, citing two recent examples, including a foiled attempt \u2013 widely attributed to Iran \u2013 to gain control of Israel\u2019s water distribution system and poison the water supply, as well as a planned attack on American power plants.<\/p>\n

\u201cOnce we obtain superiority over the attacker, we then act to deny their capabilities,\u201d said Uri. \u201cBy collaborating with industry or if necessary, we do it on our own \u2013 implementing our tools at some point along the attack stream. Be assured \u2013 8200 won\u2019t rest until the threat is removed.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen do we apply these methods? I\u2019ll mention two examples from recent years. In the first case an adversary attacked water treatment facilities in Israel. We saw this careless attacker attempting to poison the water in order to claim human lives. We mitigated that threat far ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother adversary, from this region, attacked in Israel. We initialized a CCO, and found out they are also trying to attack power plants in the US. This was the first indication for that attack. It enabled preventing this threat through our tight collaboration with our US partners.\u201d<\/p>\n
