Cyberattack On 4 Iranian Banks Confirmed

10:02 14.6.2026

Iran’s Bank Coordination Council announced that four Iranian banks had suffered a “limited cyberattack” and saw business disrupted.

In a statement issued late on June 13, the council acknowledged that “restrictions” continued for customers of four Iranian banks — Melli, Tejarat, Export, and Export Development — and promised that “banking services will return to normal in the shortest possible time and with the highest level of security.”

Iranian media previously reported that the services of the banks were disrupted simultaneously, making it impossible to use their mobile banking or ATMs.

“The disruption caused by a cyberattack was limited to these four banks, and fortunately, no unauthorized access to customer information occurred and no information leakage occurred,” the council said in the statement.

Attacks on Iran’s banking network have been a common occurrence in recent years, and the information of customers of various Iranian banks has repeatedly been the target of cyberattacks and has been bought and sold in cyberspace and the Internet.
