U.S. Cyber Command

The government of Iran on Monday insisted a reported U.S. cyberattack carried out in retaliation for Iran shooting down an American drone was completely ineffective. “They try hard, but have not carried out a successful attack,” claimed information and technology minister Mohammad Javad Azari Jahromi.

The U.S. launched a cyber attack against Iranian spy assets in the hours after the Islamic republic downed an American reconnaissance drone last week, according to various reports.
