Cyber warfare reshapes modern conflict strategy. As the US and Israel conduct military operations against Iran, cyber operations are playing a critical but largely hidden role alongside conventional strikes. While traditional weapons are publicly showcased, cyber activities remain classified. Iranian hackers have already claimed attacks on US medical technology firm Stryker. Intelligence reveals pre-positioning cyber operations targeted Iran's air defenses and military communications for months or years before strikes. Israeli operatives reportedly hacked surveillance cameras to monitor Iranian leadership movements. Cyber experts emphasize that cyber warfare functions as a force multiplier rather than a standalone weapon, enhancing situational awareness and disrupting enemy communications. US Cyber Command acted as "first movers" to blind Iran's defensive capabilities.
