The head of Iran’s National Center for Cyberspace announced on Tuesday that three significant cyberattacks targeting the country’s infrastructures have recently been repelled with the vigilance of the relevant authorities.
Addressing a conference on cybersecurity, Mohammad Amin Aghamiri said three major attacks were carried out against the country’s infrastructure recently, but they were contained and foiled with the alertness of the concerned agencies.
He noted that preventing vulnerabilities is among the most important issues in the cybersecurity field, noting that the National Center for Cyberspace issued a directive in 2023 aimed at strengthening defenses.
With the efforts of the Cyber Police (FATA), a program has been launched to enable private-sector cybersecurity specialists to identify weaknesses and address them before attackers strike, Aghamiri added.
