Finding targets is not easy, I try to use Arabic search engines etc, Many groups have target lists that assist me.

We often hear about cyber weapons and cyber attacks against critical infrastructure. Do you believe it is real the risk of a major and lethal cyber attack against a critical infrastructure?

I believe it is a risk, It’s not hard to even take down the biggest website for around 300-500$ or other cheaper methods.
