Profile narrative

The Libyan Cyber Army, also known as the Libyan Cyber Army, is a threat actor based in Libya. Public reporting shows they have conducted website defacements against Egyptian government sites, such as the 2014‑04‑28 compromise of the Egyptian Ministry of Information’s website where they displayed a Libyan flag and the message 'Hacked by the Great Team,' and they have previously targeted Libyan government assets and privately owned Israeli websites. Their observed technique involves defacing web pages; no malware families, specific initial‑access vectors, or tooling styles are described in the available sources. No public attribution to a state sponsor or criminal consortium has been made. The Egyptian Ministry defacement represents their most clearly documented operation.
