Yerevan /Mediamax/. Workshop on Cyber Security Capacity Building kicked off in Yerevan within the frames of NATO Week-2016 events.
Gagik Hovhannisyan, Head of the Arms Control and International Security Department, Armenian MFA, said that the conference is aimed at finding ways to protect from cyber threats.
“Apart from giving a number of opportunities, cyberspace involves some threats too. So, defending cyberspace from external threats is very important, and it is a challenge not only for organizations and individuals, but for the state as well,” said Armenian MFA representative.
He informed that international experts arrived in Yerevan to take part in the conference and pass their experience and knowledge to provide development of cyber security capacities in Armenia.
