The FBI has released a “Flash” warning to U.S. businesses after it was discovered that Iranian based hackers have been targeting critical infrastructure, including a U.S. defense company, military bases and airports around the globe, in what has been dubbed Operation Cleaver.

Security firm Cylance Inc. discovered the hack last week and has stated that they have uncovered more than 50 victims, in 16 countries. Reuters has the full story here.
