If in 2011 1100 Armenian web sites were broken because of the attacks
of Turkish and Azerbaijani hackers, in 2012 this number have grown up
to 1250, chairman of the public organization “Internet Society” (ISOC
AM), Igor Mkrtumyan, said at the opening ceremony of the III
conference of Web-technologies “ArmNet 2012” in Yerevan, 8 December.
He also added that the above-mentioned indices are evidence of the
necessity of raising safety level of web-sites.
ISOC AM, Orange Armenia and Maeutica branding agency initiated the
conference. Director of the agency, Haykui Taksildaryan, told Arminfo
correspondent earlier that in some sense the Internet realized itself
in Armenia like an information resource, but it has not been well
developed like a branch of economy and a business-instrument. “Few
people in the country managed to monetize Internet and build business
on it”, – she said and added that it requires special knowledge.
The winners of the III contest of Internet sites “ArmNet Awards 2012”
in 9 nominations will be awarded within the frames of the conference.
