X was hit by a massive cyberattack. A powerful group or maybe even a country is involved

Agree with you 💯

Good point, but I think it wasn't just because of the weak structure of X. It was a group of state sponsored hackers?

You’re right, could very well be something like that, I recall some group called Dark Storm saying that it was them? This action can be exploited very easily.

I found these two good articles

Based on a report by security firm Orange Cyberdefense, Dark Storm Team, which first appeared around September 2023, specializes in remote access, data infiltration, ransomware, and DDoS attacks. The group is seen as heavily pro-Palestinian and targets state organizations that support Israel. So far, Dark Storm Team has focused its attacks on key business sectors, mainly in Israel and NATO member countries.

Maybe even NSA, CIA or other three letter agency.
