The hackers stole more than 31 terabytes of academic data and intellectual property from hundreds of universities, companies, and government agencies worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Scope of the Conspiracy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Mabna Institute, founded around 2013 by Gholamreza Rafatnejad and Ehsan Mohammadi, operated as a hacking-for-hire organization that assisted Iranian universities and research organizations in stealing non-Iranian scientific resources. According to the indictment, the defendants targeted more than 100,000 professor accounts globally and successfully compromised approximately 8,000 professor email accounts across 144 U.S.-based universities and 178 foreign universities in countries including Australia, Canada, China, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, South Korea, Switzerland, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The conspiracy also targeted at least 42 U.S.-based private sector companies, 11 foreign private sector companies, five U.S. federal and state government agencies, and two non-governmental organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In total, the defendants stole more than 31.5 terabytes of academic data and intellectual property. U.S.-based universities spent more than approximately $3.4 billion to procure and access such data and intellectual property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Methods<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hackers used stolen account credentials to gain unauthorized access to victim professor accounts, which they then used to steal research, academic journals, theses, dissertations, and electronic books across all fields of research, including science and technology, engineering, social sciences, and medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The stolen data was exfiltrated to servers outside the United States under the control of the conspiracy. In addition to stealing data for the benefit of the Iranian government, the defendants sold the stolen resources through two websites: Megapaper.ir and Gigapaper.ir. Megapaper sold stolen academic resources to customers within Iran, while Gigapaper allowed customers to use compromised university professor accounts to directly access the online library systems of U.S.-based and foreign universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Defendants<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nine of the 17 defendants were previously charged in a 7-count indictment announced in March 2018. The case is assigned to U.S. District Judge Jesse M. Furman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The defendants include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00b7 Gholamreza Rafatnejad and Ehsan Mohammadi \u2013 founders of the Mabna Institute<br \/>\u00b7 Abdollah Karima (aka &#8220;Vahid Karima&#8221;) \u2013 who controlled Falinoos Company, which operated Megapaper<br \/>\u00b7 Mostafa Sadeghi, Seyed Ali Mirkarmi, Mohammed Reza Sabahi, Roozbeh Sabahi, Abuzar Gohari Moqadam, Sajjad Tahmasebi, Saeid Houshyar, Behzad Mesri (aka &#8220;Skote Vahshat&#8221;), Manouchehr Hashemloo, Keyvan Fayaz (aka &#8220;Achilles&#8221; aka &#8220;The Joker&#8221; aka &#8220;bc.monster&#8221;), Amir Barati, Saber Shahbazi Ballojeh, Arman Kahzadian, and Mojtaba Galekuhi (aka &#8220;Mojtaba Ghaleh Koui&#8221;)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Government&#8217;s Response<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg stated: &#8220;The superseding indictment alleges that, at the behest of entities including the IRGC, these defendants hacked into universities and other research institutions worldwide, including the United States, stealing at least 31 terabytes of information and intellectual property of untold value&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald for the Southern District of New York said: &#8220;More than eight years after making the original indictment public, these charges make clear that the passage of time will not deter us from identifying and pursuing those who target the United States from abroad&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FBI Cyber Division Assistant Director Brett Leatherman added: &#8220;Today&#8217;s charges make clear to cyber adversaries everywhere: the FBI&#8217;s memory is long, and time will not blunt our resolve to pursue justice&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Concurrent with the unsealing of the indictment, the U.S. Department of State&#8217;s Rewards for Justice program is offering a reward of up to $10 million for information leading to the location of defendants Mesri, Galekuhi, Kahzadian, Fayaz, and Ballojeh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Conclusion<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The charges against the 17 Iranian defendants represent one of the largest cyber theft cases ever brought by the U.S. Department of Justice. The scale of the operation\u2014spanning more than a decade, targeting over 300 institutions worldwide, and stealing 31 terabytes of data\u2014underscores the growing threat of state-sponsored cyber espionage and the Iranian regime&#8217;s willingness to weaponize hackers-for-hire to advance its strategic interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udcfa YouTube: youtube.com\/@bernd_pulch<br \/>\ud83d\udc26 X (Twitter): x.com\/berndsocial1<br \/>\ud83d\udce2 Telegram: t.me\/ABOVETOPSECRETXXL<br \/>\ud83d\udd13 UNLOCK THE TRUTH: berndpulch.org\/join<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">17 Iraner wegen massiver Cyber-Diebstahlkampagne im Auftrag der IRGC angeklagt<br \/><br \/>Eine am 19. August 2026 unter Siegel ge\u00f6ffnete Anklageschrift mit 14 Anklagepunkten beschuldigt 17 Mitglieder des im Iran ans\u00e4ssigen Mabna Institute, im Auftrag der Islamischen Revolutionsgarde (IRGC) und anderer iranischer Einrichtungen eine weitreichende Cyber-Diebstahlkampagne durchgef\u00fchrt zu haben. Die Hacker stahlen mehr als 31 Terabyte an akademischen Daten und geistigem Eigentum von Hunderten von Universit\u00e4ten, Unternehmen und Regierungsbeh\u00f6rden weltweit.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>Das Ausma\u00df der Verschw\u00f6rung<br \/><br \/>Das Mabna Institute, das etwa 2013 von Gholamreza Rafatnejad und Ehsan Mohammadi gegr\u00fcndet wurde, operierte als eine Hacking-Agentur, die iranische Universit\u00e4ten und Forschungseinrichtungen beim Diebstahl nicht-iranischer wissenschaftlicher Ressourcen unterst\u00fctzte. Laut der Anklageschrift hatten die Angeklagten weltweit mehr als 100.000 Professorenkonten ins Visier genommen und erfolgreich etwa 8.000 E-Mail-Konten von Professoren kompromittiert \u2013 an 144 US-amerikanischen Universit\u00e4ten und 178 ausl\u00e4ndischen Universit\u00e4ten in L\u00e4ndern wie Australien, Kanada, China, Deutschland, Israel, Italien, Japan, den Niederlanden, S\u00fcdkorea, der Schweiz, der T\u00fcrkei und dem Vereinigten K\u00f6nigreich.<br \/><br \/>Die Verschw\u00f6rung richtete sich zudem gegen mindestens 42 US-amerikanische Privatunternehmen, 11 ausl\u00e4ndische Privatunternehmen, f\u00fcnf US-Bundes- und Landesbeh\u00f6rden sowie zwei Nichtregierungsorganisationen.<br \/><br \/>Insgesamt stahlen die Angeklagten mehr als 31,5 Terabyte an akademischen Daten und geistigem Eigentum. Die US-Universit\u00e4ten gaben mehr als 3,4 Milliarden Dollar aus, um solche Daten und geistiges Eigentum zu beschaffen und darauf zuzugreifen.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>Die Methoden<br \/><br \/>Die Hacker nutzten gestohlene Zugangsdaten, um sich unbefugten Zugang zu den Konten der betroffenen Professoren zu verschaffen. Mit diesen Konten stahlen sie Forschungsergebnisse, wissenschaftliche Zeitschriften, Dissertationen, elektronische B\u00fccher und andere akademische Daten aus allen Forschungsbereichen \u2013 einschlie\u00dflich Naturwissenschaften, Technik, Ingenieurwesen, Sozialwissenschaften und Medizin.<br \/><br \/>Die gestohlenen Daten wurden auf Server au\u00dferhalb der USA transferiert, die sich unter der Kontrolle der Verschw\u00f6rung befanden. Zus\u00e4tzlich zum Diebstahl von Daten f\u00fcr die iranische Regierung verkauften die Angeklagten die gestohlenen Ressourcen \u00fcber zwei Websites: Megapaper.ir und Gigapaper.ir. Megapaper verkaufte gestohlene akademische Ressourcen an Kunden im Iran, w\u00e4hrend Gigapaper es Kunden erm\u00f6glichte, kompromittierte Universit\u00e4tskonten zu nutzen, um direkt auf die Online-Bibliothekssysteme US-amerikanischer und ausl\u00e4ndischer Universit\u00e4ten zuzugreifen.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>Die Angeklagten<br \/><br \/>Neun der 17 Angeklagten waren bereits in einer im M\u00e4rz 2018 bekannt gegebenen Anklageschrift mit sieben Anklagepunkten angeklagt worden. Der Fall ist dem US-Bezirksrichter Jesse M. Furman zugewiesen.<br \/><br \/>Zu den Angeklagten geh\u00f6ren:<br \/><br \/>\u00b7 Gholamreza Rafatnejad und Ehsan Mohammadi \u2013 Gr\u00fcnder des Mabna Institute<br \/>\u00b7 Abdollah Karima (alias &#8220;Vahid Karima&#8221;) \u2013 kontrollierte die Falinoos Company, die Megapaper betrieb<br \/>\u00b7 Mostafa Sadeghi, Seyed Ali Mirkarmi, Mohammed Reza Sabahi, Roozbeh Sabahi, Abuzar Gohari Moqadam, Sajjad Tahmasebi, Saeid Houshyar<br \/>\u00b7 Behzad Mesri (alias &#8220;Skote Vahshat&#8221;)<br \/>\u00b7 Manouchehr Hashemloo<br \/>\u00b7 Keyvan Fayaz (alias &#8220;Achilles&#8221;, alias &#8220;The Joker&#8221;, alias &#8220;bc.monster&#8221;)<br \/>\u00b7 Amir Barati, Saber Shahbazi Ballojeh, Arman Kahzadian und Mojtaba Galekuhi (alias &#8220;Mojtaba Ghaleh Koui&#8221;)<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>Die Reaktion der Regierung<br \/><br \/>John A. Eisenberg, Stellvertretender Generalstaatsanwalt f\u00fcr Nationale Sicherheit, erkl\u00e4rte: &#8220;Die erweiterte Anklageschrift behauptet, dass diese Angeklagten im Auftrag von Einrichtungen einschlie\u00dflich der IRGC in Universit\u00e4ten und andere Forschungseinrichtungen weltweit, einschlie\u00dflich der Vereinigten Staaten, eingedrungen sind und mindestens 31 Terabyte an Informationen und geistigem Eigentum von unsch\u00e4tzbarem Wert gestohlen haben.&#8221;<br \/><br \/>Jamie McDonald, US-Staatsanwalt f\u00fcr den S\u00fcdbezirk von New York, sagte: &#8220;Mehr als acht Jahre nach der Ver\u00f6ffentlichung der urspr\u00fcnglichen Anklageschrift machen diese Anklagen deutlich, dass der Lauf der Zeit uns nicht davon abhalten wird, diejenigen zu identifizieren und zu verfolgen, die die Vereinigten Staaten aus dem Ausland angreifen.&#8221;<br \/><br \/>Brett Leatherman, stellvertretender Direktor der FBI-Cyberdivision, f\u00fcgte hinzu: &#8220;Die heutigen Anklagen machen Cyber-Gegnern \u00fcberall klar: Das FBI hat ein langes Ged\u00e4chtnis, und die Zeit wird unsere Entschlossenheit, Gerechtigkeit zu \u00fcben, nicht schw\u00e4chen.&#8221;<br \/><br \/>Parallel zur \u00d6ffnung der Anklageschrift bietet das Rewards for Justice-Programm des US-Au\u00dfenministeriums eine Belohnung von bis zu 10 Millionen Dollar f\u00fcr Informationen, die zur Ergreifung der Angeklagten Mesri, Galekuhi, Kahzadian, Fayaz und Ballojeh f\u00fchren.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>Fazit<br \/><br \/>Die Anklage gegen die 17 iranischen Angeklagten stellt eine der gr\u00f6\u00dften Cyber-Diebstahlverfahren dar, die jemals vom US-Justizministerium eingeleitet wurden. Das Ausma\u00df der Operation \u2013 die sich \u00fcber mehr als ein Jahrzehnt erstreckte, mehr als 300 Einrichtungen weltweit angriff und 31 Terabyte an Daten stahl \u2013 unterstreicht die wachsende Bedrohung durch staatlich gef\u00f6rderte Cyber-Spionage und die Bereitschaft des iranischen Regimes, Hacking-Agenten zu bewaffnen, um seine strategischen Interessen durchzusetzen.<br \/><br \/>&#8212;<br \/><br \/>\ud83d\udcfa YouTube: youtube.com\/@bernd_pulch<br \/>\ud83d\udc26 X (Twitter): x.com\/berndsocial1<br \/>\ud83d\udce2 Telegram: t.me\/ABOVETOPSECRETXXL<br \/>\ud83d\udd13 UNLOCK THE TRUTH: berndpulch.org\/join<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>17 Iranians charged with cyber theft campaign on behalf of IRGC.
