The Department of Justice (DOJ) seized four domains linked to Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) as part of an ongoing effort to disrupt the Iranian agency’s hacking and transnational repression schemes, the department said in a March 19 statement.

The seized domains—Justicehomeland.org, Handala-Hack.to, Karmabelow80.org, and Handala-Redwanted.to—were used by MOIS for “psychological operations targeting adversaries of the regime by claiming credit for hacking activity, posting sensitive data stolen during such hacks, and calling for the killing of journalists, regime dissidents, and Israeli persons,” DOJ said.
