On Sunday, the New York Times quoted senior US officials as saying the Obama administration began helping its Middle Eastern friends build up cyber defenses against alleged attacks form the Islamic Republic.
The report, however, did not mention which countries had signed up for the program. Over the past few years, Iran has been a target of several cyber attacks. Tehran has repeatedly accused the US and Israel of carrying cyber attacks against targets in the Islamic Republic.
