Eron telecommunication attacks are increasing the global internet threat
Iran has launched attacks against telecommunications companies. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
If such attacks increase and continue, major problems could arise globally. Firstly, internet services will decline in many regions.
They will experience increased ping, unstable connections, and interruptions in local services. This situation negatively affects the quality of internet usage for users.
Secondly, there is a possibility of attacks on cloud computing systems. This would cause problems in the operation of email, cloud services, and applications belonging to large companies like Google, Microsoft, or Apple.
Thirdly, disruptions will occur in internet traffic routes. The internet will be forced to bypass damaged nodes, which will lead to a slowdown in data flow worldwide.
Additionally, there is a risk of attacks on submarine cables. These cables are a crucial part of the global internet infrastructure, and their damage would have serious consequences.
For example, dozens of underwater cables pass through the Strait of Hormuz and the Red Sea, carrying 17-30 percent of global internet traffic. These cables connect Europe, Asia, and Africa.
If problems arise in their operation, internet speeds will slow down, and there will be interruptions in the activities of banks, cloud services, and artificial intelligence platforms. If Iran's systematic attacks continue, this could cause unprecedented problems worldwide.
Furthermore, Iranian missiles struck the headquarters of Batelco company located in Hamal city, Bahrain. Batelco is one of the largest telecommunications companies in the world and owns Amazon Web Services servers.
This company also directly affects Central Asian networks. Thus, the attacks could cause significant problems not only regionally but also globally.
