Saeid Mostafaei worked for Rana and managed databases that stored personal information used for targeted surveillance. His role was vital for organizing and maintaining the data required for cyber intrusions. His contributions supported the overall intelligence efforts. In September 2020, the U.S. Treasury’s OFAC press release identified database management as a key aspect of the MOIS-linked cyber campaign. The announcement emphasized the role of comprehensive data collection in state-sponsored operations. This designation reinforced the international alert regarding these digital practices.
