The Court of Accounts' investigation into the negligence of the institutions responsible for carrying out cyber security improvement tasks.
The Court of Accounts announced in a report: failure to implement cyber security tasks caused disruptions in infrastructure budgets. According to the report of this regulatory body, despite the clarity of Sections 103 and 107 of the Seventh Development Plan Law, as well as Section "F" in Note (6) of the Budget Law from 1404, the tasks related to improving computer security and protecting critical infrastructures have not been fully implemented.
The Ministry of Communications and Information, the Central Bank and the operating banks faced delays and failures in carrying out legal missions as well as in the annual assessment and rating process of computer security.
Failures of this type not only endanger the security of national data, but also led to disruptions in the performance of financial tasks. Among these disruptions is the failure to allocate at least one percent of the credits for spending and purchasing capital assets of eligible devices to promote cyber security. Also, this failure prevented the granting of half a percent of credit related to the development of the smart government ecosystem and artificial intelligence until the end of 1404.
The state accounting court, while emphasizing the necessity of immediate and full execution of tasks in the field of cyber defense, referred the case of the implementation of these devices to a legal hearing in the court of the state accounting court.
