Iran's key ministries to go offline for cyber security
- Iran: Monday, August 06 - 2012 at 12:12
Reza Taghipour, Iran's telecoms minister has unveiled plans to move key ministries and state bodies off the worldwide web next month, in an effort to shield them behind a secure computer wall from disruptive cyber-attacks like the Stuxnet and Flame viruses, The Telegraph has reported. The decision was made as sensitive intelligence was vulnerable on the worldwide web, which he said was untrustworthy because it was controlled by "one or two" countries hostile to Iran, he said. "The establishment of the national intelligence network will create a situation where the precious intelligence of the country won't be accessible to these powers," said Taghipour.
