1877 Team: A Kurdish hacker group on the rise

The world of cyber security is an ever-changing landscape of threats and new technologies. In the face of this shifting landscape, one hacker group has been steadily gaining attention in recent years: 1877 Team. This is an Iranian-Kurdish hacker group that has been linked to a range of cyber attacks, from distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks to website defacements.

The 1877 Team was founded in 2014 and is believed to be led by a Kurdish individual living in Iran. Since then, the group has been active in various forms of cyber crime, particularly those involving website defacement and DDoS attacks. Recently, the group has been linked to a number of attacks against Iranian government websites, including the website of the Iranian Nuclear Energy Organization.

The group has also been linked to attacks against the websites of various government agencies in the United States, such as the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Aviation Administration, and the Internal Revenue Service. While the 1877 Team is believed to be a predominantly Kurdish-Iranian hacker group, it has operated in other countries as well. For example, the group has been linked to attacks against websites in Russia, Turkey, and Israel.

Despite their notoriety, the 1877 Team has yet to be officially linked to any major cyber attack. Nonetheless, the group continues to be a source of concern for many, particularly in light of the recent cyber-attacks against Iranian government websites. As cyber security continues to be a major concern, the 1877 Team and other hacker groups like them will continue to be an important factor in the ever-evolving cyber security landscape.
