Israel plans ‘Cyber-Dome’ to defeat digital attacks from Iran and others
The new head of Israel's National Cyber Directorate has announced the nation intends to build a"Cyber-Dome" – a national defense system to fend off digital attacks.
Gaby Portnoy, director general of INCD, revealed plans for Cyber-Dome on Tuesday, delivering his first public speech since his appointment to the role in February. Portnoy is a 31-year veteran of the Israeli Defense Forces, which he exited as a brigadier general after also serving as head of operations for the Intelligence Corps, and leading visual intelligence team Unit 9900.
"The Cyber-Dome will elevate national cyber security by implementing new mechanisms in the national cyber perimeter, reducing the harm from cyber attacks at scale," Portnoy told a conference in Tel Aviv."The Cyber-Dome will also provide tools and services to elevate the protection of the national assets as a whole. The Dome is a new big data, AI, overall approach to proactive defense. It will synchronize nation-level real-time detection, analysis, and mitigation of threats.
Portnoy said the Cyber-Dome is needed because INCD detected and defeated 1,500 cyber-attacks last year alone. The agency even named the dominant source of those attacks. "Iran has become our dominant rival in cyber, together with Hezbollah and Hamas,” Portnoy declared."We see them, we know how they work, and we are there. On the other hand, the spectrum also was stretched – to attackers, attack groups, proxies, independent crime organizations, and private people."
