Information Network Security Administration says cyber attacks targeting Renaissance Dam and major financial institutions have failed.
Information Network Security Administration Director General Shumete Gizaw (Dr.) said the organization, which is supported by countries that do not want peace and development, has launched a cyber war called "Black Pyramid War" to disrupt the construction of the Renaissance Dam.
However, those who conspired to destroy it said that their dream had come true.
He also said that an attempt was made to disrupt the Renaissance Dam by attacking 37,000 computers used by financial institutions.
He said the attacks had been stopped by the Information Security Administration without any harm.
He said cyber-attacks are expected to intensify once the Renaissance Dam starts generating power.
He said the company is working closely with the construction and control of the Renaissance Dam to implement strong cyber security.
Regarding the dam, he said the cyber environment will be closely monitored, from manufacturing to construction materials.
He said cyber-attacks on the Renaissance Dam had so far been unsuccessful, adding that similar attacks were still being carried out on financial institutions.
Like energy companies, financial institutions are also a target for cyber-attacks, he said.
They say it is important to anticipate, plan and implement measures to prevent cyber-attacks.
He said the cyber-attacks on financial institutions could have serious consequences if they were to break into.
He urged the financial institutions to make the necessary arrangements to protect themselves from such attacks.
