Analysis of Pager Bombings

Recent attacks involving pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah fighters highlight significant vulnerabilities in supply chain security. Initially perceived as potential cyberattacks, it became evident that these incidents involved physical explosives detonated remotely. The attackers utilized aging communication technology, exploiting its inherent weaknesses, as these devices are not widely used and likely have a simple supply chain. This attack underscores the need for critical assessment of technology adoption and the implications of using legacy systems in operational environments.
