Why the Iran cyberattack everyone warned about hasn’t really happened yet

# Why Iran Hasn't Launched the Feared Cyberattack Yet Despite warnings that Iran would launch a massive cyberattack against the U.S., the attacks that have actually happened over the past six weeks have been relatively minor—hitting things like a medical equipment company and stealing some employee data—rather than the catastrophic system failures many feared. Iran-linked hackers have instead focused their energy on targets in the Middle East like gas companies and businesses in neighboring countries. Security experts say the attacks we've seen so far are opportunistic and attention-grabbing but haven't caused serious damage to critical systems, suggesting either Iran is holding back or simply hasn't followed through on the threat level everyone was bracing for.
