The Iranian body overseeing the country’s contested nuclear program said its email servers were subject to an “illegal infiltration” by an unknown group in a foreign country.
The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran said in a statement on its website that a number of emails from the IT unit of a subsidiary called the Nuclear Energy Production and Development Co., which is responsible for making nuclear energy, were published online without authorization.
The AEOI said an internal investigation had been launched “in the shortest possible time” and referred to the matter as a “desperate attempt to attract public attention."
