German Interior Minister Alexander Doblin said that Germany has established a joint German-Israel cyber research centre to deepen cooperation between the intelligence reporting agencies and security agencies of both countries.
According to the German Build newspaper, “Military defense alone is not enough to have this turning point in security. Significant upgrades to civil defense are also essential to strengthen overall defense capabilities.
According to Bild, Dobrindt outlined a five-point plan aimed at establishing what he called the “cyberdome” as part of Germany’s cyber defense strategy.
Earlier on Sunday, Bavarian Prime Minister Marcus Soder called for the acquisition of 2,000 interceptor missiles to equip Germany with a “iron dome” system similar to Israeli short-range missile defense technology.
