    Cyber-crimes against the Armenian websites have been increasing in
    number in the past months, according to recent findings.

    Speaking at the ArmNet 2012 conference on Saturday, President of the
    Internet Society of Armenia Grigory Saghyan said the cyber-attacks by
    Turkish and Azerbaijani hackers have increased from 11,000 in 2011 to
    1,250 in 2012.

    `Armenia is facing a serious problem in terms of the internet
    development, which is a cybercrime. Surveys reveal that the internet
    domain security is much lower in Armenia, and we often see breaches by
    the Azeris and Turks,' he said, noting that 3 billion people on the
    planet are currently internet users.

    `The pan-Armenian survey launched will help find what percentage of
    the population is involved in online communities. But [many] in
    Armenia - starting from young children - use the Internet,' Saghyan
    said, adding that Armenia is a leading country in terms of its
    internet users whose number grows rapidly by every year.
