Iran Suffering a Techno Gap in Cyber Defense
Commander of Iran's Passive Defense Organization Qolamreza Jalali has said the country suffers a technological gap in cyber defense.
He also noted that while countries such as the US and UK count cyber attacks as military threats, the Iranian defense and foreign ministries have refrained from recognizing a recent cyber attack on Iran's Natanz nuclear facilities as a threat.
He went on to say that Iran has entered the cyber war since some factories in the country run fully on cyber tools, opening the way for “enemies” to infiltrate the factories’ infrastructure.
Jalali urged a domestic industrial movement for boosting Iran's cyber defense parameters.
Iran held cyber defense exercises last October in five provinces to test governmental organizations’ resistance against cyber threats.
For the first time, Iran held security operations center (SOC) drill in the Telecommunication Infrastructure Company of the Communications and Information Technology Ministry.
