Thorough reorganization at NSA will create five 'mission centers,' including cyber and AI
NSA is reorganizing into five mission centers covering China, cybersecurity, AI, combat support and global intelligence, with full capability targeted by January.
NSA Director Gen. Joshua Rudd announced a sweeping reorganization replacing existing directorates with five mission centers focused on China, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, combat support, and global intelligence. A 30-day implementation clock has started, and the centers are expected to reach full operational capability by January. Officials acknowledge the rapid realignment will 'break things' in the agency's bureaucracy; this is the largest restructuring since the NSA21 effort roughly a decade ago, which was widely viewed as a failure.

US offering $10 million for info on Iranian hackers behind IOControl malware
US offers up to $10 million for information on CyberAv3ngers' 'Mr. Soul,' whose IOControl malware targets US and worldwide ICS/SCADA devices.
The State Department announced a reward of up to $10 million for information on an online persona known as Mr. Soul (or Mr. Soll) tied to CyberAv3ngers, which conducts malicious cyber activity for Iran's IRGC Cyber-Electronic Command. CyberAv3ngers used the IOControl malware against ICS/SCADA devices in the US, Israel and worldwide, targeting products from Unitronics, D-Link, Hikvision and Baicells, according to Claroty and Armis analyses. The malware allows remote control of infected devices and lateral movement within victim networks. The reward follows an August action offering rewards for and sanctioning six Iranian government hackers and comes amid the widening Israel-Iran military conflict.
