Consequences of repeated internet outages Why is blocking the internet during a crisis or war considered a strategic error and a dangerous scenario? Sadegh Nakhjavani, an expert and activist in the field of information technology, wrote in a note in the Dunya Akhtaz newspaper: With the introduction of artificial intelligence, the time required to identify new holes in software has reached several hours. In this situation, the internet outage is not a security shield, but an obstacle to receiving critical updates, leaving the country's websites, banks and infrastructure defenseless. The civil and international organization "Electronic Borders Foundation" (EFF) recently published a figure. This figure changes the rules of cyber security in the world. In October alone, 3% of all software vulnerabilities in human history were discovered. Almost a quarter of all known security holes in the world were found this year as well. Matthew Prince, CEO of Cloudflare, predicted the future in a conversation with the Reuters news agency. Three periods of internet disruption in the 12-day and 39-day wars and the events of January 1404 resulted in business closures and human capital erosion. call details
