The attack which had used the well-known APT27 was repelled by the security shield known as the Dejfa firewall.
The Minister refused to give further details about the incident but said that servers and hackers had been tracked.
I cannot give details but yes, we were targeted by a very organized and governmental cyber attack.
We are looking into the attacks different dimensions and will release a report on it.
It was a massive attack.
He also added that authorities were investigating the exact dimensions of the cyberattack.
It is unclear whether the incident was the latest addition to the ongoing war between the U.S. and Iran.
The Americans have repeatedly threatened and mounted cyberattacks against us, Jalali said back then.
However, on June 24, Tehran claimed that cyberattacks against Iranian targets were not successful.
