Iran Knocked Out AWS. Your Clients' Business Continuity Plan Wasn't Built for This

On February 28th, the United States and Israel launched coordinated strikes on Iran. Most people know that part.

What most people don't know is that Iran responded by sending drones directly into Amazon Web Services data centers in the UAE. Two facilities struck. A third in Bahrain damaged. For the first time in history, commercial cloud infrastructure became a military target — and most of your clients have no idea it happened.

What's worse — Iranian cyber operators had already pre-positioned backdoors inside American banks and airports before the first bomb dropped. And with Iran's conventional military now severely degraded, cyber is the only weapon they have left.

Jon Murchison, former CEO of Blackpoint Cyber, spent years at the NSA tracking this exact adversary — including their nuclear program — then built one of the most respected MDR platforms in the channel. He has seen Iran from both sides of the fence, and he's here because MSPs are now the most exposed link between nation-state operators and the clients counting on you.
