ARMENIAN BANKS' WEBSITES NOT SUFFICIENTLY PROTECTED- EXPERT
YEREVAN, January 13. / ARKA /. The bulk of Armenian commercial banks
can not boast of official websites that are protected safely from
hacker attacks and other online threats, according to cyber security
expert Samvel Martirosyan. Speaking at a news conference, he said it
is a big concern because banks are among the institutions that must be
equipped with the highest possible level of protection against hacker
and other attacks. He said in 2014 several attacks against banks
were reported. According to him, the banks must have maximum level
protection because attacks against banks are likely to create national
security-related risks. According to Martirosyan, the most protected
government websites in Armenia are those of the foreign ministry and
the president. "All the other websites are often cracked. In many
cases, it seems that their owners are not even aware of it," he added.
