Handala Hack, the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence-linked group currently operating at peak intensity during the ongoing regional conflict, claims to have breached PSK Wind Technologies, an Israeli firm that designs and manufactures integrated command and control systems for defense clients. The group announced the alleged intrusion on April 2 and says it extracted all sensitive data from the company’s servers.
PSK Wind, headquartered in Yavne and majority-owned by the publicly listed MTI Wireless Edge group, provides defense organizations with command and control shelters, RF and communication systems, electro-optic surveillance infrastructure, and GPS-based systems. The company holds an ISO 9001:2015 certification and reported roughly $3.7 million in revenue for 2024. Its client base spans defense, homeland security, and border protection missions internationally.
What Was Allegedly Taken
According to the group’s post, the stolen material includes classified documents related to command and control (C2) centers and military communication systems. Screenshots published alongside the claim show what appear to be internal company photos, a Hebrew-language delivery order referencing radar rack equipment, and product imagery consistent with PSK Wind’s publicly displayed defense hardware catalog. The group further alleged the data was transmitted to what it described as resistance missile units, a claim that cannot be verified.
A Credible Actor, an Unverified Claim
Handala Hack is not a low-profile actor making noise for attention. Security researchers have linked the group to Iran’s MOIS through the Void Manticore cluster, also tracked as Banished Kitten and Storm-0842. The group has a documented history of destructive operations against Israeli targets ranging from nuclear research facilities to health services, and most recently carried out the Stryker Corporation attack in March 2026 that factory-reset more than 200,000 devices through a hijacked Microsoft Intune environment.
That operational track record means the PSK Wind claim cannot be dismissed outright. However, Handala routinely pairs breach announcements with psychological warfare messaging, and researchers at Israel’s National Cyber Directorate have previously assessed some of the group’s high-profile claims as primarily influence operations rather than confirmed intrusions. The group’s post accompanying this claim was laced with Passover-timed threats and language about missile strikes, which is consistent with Handala’s standard propaganda pattern.
