OFAC targets Hizballah and Iranian cyber actors

The Treasury Department announced Thursday that OFAC has sanctioned two Lebanon-based companies, Arch Consulting and Meamar Construction, for being owned, controlled, or directed by Hizballah. Additionally, OFAC designated Sultan Khalifah As’ad, a Hizballah Executive Council official, who is closely associated with both companies.

Treasury also announced that OFAC has imposed sanctions on Iranian cyber threat group Advanced Persistent Threat 39, 45 associated individuals, and one front company, Rana Intelligence Computing Company, through which the Government of Iran (GOI) employed a years-long malware campaign that targeted Iranian dissidents, journalists, and international companies in the travel sector. Concurrent with OFAC’s action, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) released detailed information about APT39 in a public intelligence alert.
