MNA � Iran has dismissed reports by some Western media claiming that the country�s vital infrastructure and oil facilities had come under cyber-attack.

�According to observations, despite western media�s claims, no successful cyber-attacks have been carried out on oil facilities and vital infrastructures,� Afta Strategic Management Center, a body working under Iran�s Presidency, said in a statement on Saturday.

Some media had claimed on Saturday that a number of Iranian servers and websites, including petrochemical firms, have come cyber-attacks.

Also, Head of ITO (Iran�s Information Technology Organization) Amir Nazemi dismissed the reports, tweeting, �In the past 48 hours, no unexpected incident which indicates a cyber-attack has been observed in the Dejfa shield.�

�The sentence of �there will be no war� also includes the cyberspace,� he said noting that Iran is ready to counter any aggression.

In May 2019, Iranian ICT Ministry unveiled a cybersecurity project codenamed Digital Fortress (Dejfa in Persian) to shield the country from increasing cyber threats targeting Iran�s infrastructure and online businesses.
