Exposing Iran's Most Wanted Cybercriminals - FBI Most Wanted Checklist - OSINT Analysis

Remember my most recently published "Assessing The Computer Network Operation (CNO) Capabilities of the Islamic Republic of Iran - Report"? The report details and discusses in-depth the most prolific Iran-based government-sponsored and tolerated hacking groups including the following groups:

- Ashiyane Digital Security Team
- Iranhack Security Team
- Iranian Datacoders Security Team
- Iran Security Team a.k.a SEPANTA Team/Iran Cyber Army 2012/2013
- IDH Security Team
- Bastan Security Team
- NOPO Digital Security Team
- Shekaf Security Team
- Mafia Hacking Team
- Iran Black Hats Team
- Delta Hacking Security Team
- Digital Boys Underground Team
- IrIst Security Team

I recently came across to FBI's Most Wanted Cybercriminals List and decided to elaborate more by providing actionable Threat Intelligence on some of the most Wanted Iranian cybercriminals with the idea to help law enforcement and to inform the security industry and to ensure that the cybercriminals behind these campaigns can be properly tracked down and prosecuted.
