OFAC FAQ (Current) # 489 - Cyber-related Sanctions: (Executive Order 13694)

TURBOFAC Commentary (85 words)

Notes:

1) Compare the range of conduct for which designations may be made with those included in Executive Order 13848 of September 12, 2018 (Imposing Certain Sanctions in the Event of Foreign Interference in a United States Election). There is a wide range of computer-related activity that falls outside the scope of the Cyber-related EOs that does fall within the scope of the "Foreign Interference" EO. Presumably, the organization WikiLeaks would be designated by now if EO 13848 were in force in 2015.
