Cyber Attacks Continue; Iran Suspected

Recent cyber attacks on United States banks point to Iran. Attacks on Capital One Financial Corp. and BB&T Corp. are part a recent stream of attacks on banks and oil companies by the accused Qassam Cyber Fighters. QCF is believed to be supported by the Iranian government. U.S. officials suspect the attacks are retaliation to recent western sanctions on Iran. These sanctions are intended to halt development of its nuclear program.
