Moses Staff hackers strike again, attack Israeli engineering companies

The group announced on Tuesday that it had targeted Ehud Leviathan Engineering, David Engineers, and H.G.M. Engineering in its latest attack, Jerusalem Post reported.

The data leaked from the three companies includes projects, maps, contracts, pictures, letters and video conferencing images.

Moses Staff stated that the information it had leaked did not include everything that they had obtained and they would gradually release the rest.

Unlike the Black Shadow hacker group which also struck Israeli companies recently, Moses Staff did not make any demands for money or anything else.

The leaked documents included documents about infrastructure projects, including highways and public water systems. Some of the leaked documents even included a tender and other documents concerning construction in the new city entrance project that's currently underway at the entrance of Jerusalem.

ID cards and insurance documents were also leaked in the attack.

Moses Staff's website said that the group has hacked over 165 servers and 254 websites and compiled over 11 terabytes of data, including Israel Post, the Defense (War) Ministry, files related to Defense (War) Minister Benny Gantz, the Electron Csillag company and Epsilor company.

"We've kept an eye on you for many years, at every moment and on each step," wrote the group in the announcement of the attack on the Defense Ministry on their Telegram channel last week. "All your decisions and statements have been under our surveillance. Eventually, we will strike you while you never would have imagined."

Moses Staff stated in the announcement to have access to confidential documents, including reports, operational maps, information about soldiers and units, and letters and correspondence. "We are going to publish this information to aware [sic] all the world about the Israeli authorities’ crimes," warned the group.

The files leaked in the earlier attack included photos of Gantz and IDF soldiers and a 2010 letter from Gantz to the deputy chief of the joint chiefs of staff and chief of intelligence in the Jordanian Armed Forces. The leaked files also included Excel files allegedly containing the names, ID numbers, emails, addresses, phone numbers and even socioeconomic status of soldiers, mechina pre-military students and individuals connected to the Defense Ministry.
