Israeli National Railway Communications, healthcare providers, gov services and even a national linguistics organization- all were cyber breached during the ongoing war between Israel, the US and Iran. “Epic Fury” operation’s repercussion on Israel’s civil services is heartfelt, this hardware authentication solution offers a reprieve. Ready to “pass-up” the risk of identity-centered malicious attacks?
Today, the battlegrounds are everywhere. Not only in combating cybercrime-related hacking attempts, but also in terms of full blown stately attacks, as part of a bigger, geopolitical campaign. Since the start of “Epic Fury” operation, or the Israeli-US-Iran war, earlier this month, critical and mundane Israeli organizations and government services were attacked, and breached. Mainly by Iran-backed hacking campaigns.
To address the identity-centered hacking barrage on civilian infrastructure, E.D.E Electronics LTD. is proud to address the needs of these civilian systems. Namely, with the most capable and secure physical access key to date. Designed and produced by E.D.E’s strategic partner Swissbit, this iShield security key solutions family brings identity-first approach to the forefront of the homefront. Such as to civilian healthcare systems. From highly rugged modulation to multiple protocols compatibility- this is truly a physical shield versus cyber threats.
For example, it was revealed this pass week on Kan, Israel’s National Broadcasting service, that Iran-backed hacking group hacked the Academy of the Hebrew Language website. Earlier this week, the Israeli National Railways’ inner systems were hacked this week and showcased false messages to evacuate in their train stations. Many of which operate as shelters against rocket fire. Additionally, an Iranian hackers group had claimed that it had breached Clalit Health services, the apparent biggest healthcare provider in Israel, had took possession of ten thousand patients files and medical histories.
- Epic Fury: the physical access key to fight hacking targeting critical infrastructure
- High education, high risk: the hardware authentication solution against education-targeted by cybercrime
- The hidden advantage: the iShield passkey is now HID boosted
- Secured Skies: Hardware identification solution is solid option to counter growing cyber threats
- Identity has become the focal point of cybercrime, new hardware is ready to face the threat
The iShield key is a much needed hardware versus malware, as it allows users to protect online accounts. Specifically, by securely accessing websites, applications, online services, and company networks. Additionally, the latest generation, the iShield Key 2, is a foundational element of a Zero Trust strategy, facilitating the implementation of Multi Factor Authenticaiton (MFA) and compliance with regulatory requirements such as NIS2, CRA, DORA, and the U.S. Executive Order on cybersecurity. As a result, the iShield security is also described as the most rugged physical access key to date.
In parallel, identity-fixed malicious attacks are becoming ever-more approachable with the help of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Thus, it seems the physical solution is the simpler, more secure, and more flexible solution. In addition, the iShield security key is the first FIDO security key to feature MIFARE DESFire EV3 or a FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification. Ensuring maximum security for demanding application. Currently, the iShield security key is able to store up to 300 passkeys, while packaged in A or C USB ports.
E.D.E. Electronics LTD. CEO, Dr. Eran Weis, stated: “this recent situation has revealed a modern constant truth. Which is that everything is connected. There are no frontlines anymore, and everything is a target. Even clearcut humanitarian or civilian institutions. With this splendid protection technology, we provide a shield to services that do not distinguish between friend or foe. With this tech, there is only one distinction. Between attackers, and the attacked. Those in need, and those who exploit”.
Weis also remarked: “We in E.D.E truly believe that this approach, of hardware-software combination, is the true path to address the dangers the new AI era generates”.
