Iran’s Cyber Police Crackdown on Iranian Hackers
Iranian press has reported that the country's cyber police arrested 70 hackers.
According to Iranian Students News Agency (ISNA), the deputy commander of cyber police for legal and international affairs Colonel Hoseyn Ramezani, said that the cyber police carried out an operation from 10 August to 8 September 2015 to identify hackers and individuals who manage websites which provide hacking training and software.
Colonel Ramezani added that cyber police monitored more than 15000 websites and identified 104 violations. Additionally more than 70 hackers were identified and referred to the Judiciary.
It is possible that the cyber police exaggerates claims in an effort to use such propaganda to frighten the Iranian hacking community but time will tell.
