Jerusalem: Israel will
train teenagers on cyber-warfare to prepare them for their future
role in the military and intelligence community.
"The threat of cyber attacks against Israel comes from Iran and
other elements," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the
launch of the cyber-warfare programme.
"Our vital systems are targets for attack, and this will only
increase as we enter the digital age.
"We are bolstering our ability to deal with these threats and are
building a digital Iron Dome," he said at Ashkelon.
The Israel National Cyber Bureau will run the three-year programme
to develop expertise in cybernetics and computers among
outstanding high school students, Xinhua reported.
Cyber security has become a national priority in Israel, with
significant resources being invested in protecting the military
and civilian computing networks.
