Reports emerged on social media earlier today suggesting that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) had launched a cyber attack on Oracle Corporation’s data center in Dubai. However, the Dubai Government Media Office (GMO) has now denied these claims, stating that there is no truth to the reported incident.
According to sources, the alleged attack was said to have happened in the early hours of the morning, with some reports claiming that the IRGC had used a range of cyber tools to gain access to the data center’s systems. However, in a statement released on X, the Dubai Government Media Office said that there was no evidence of any such attack taking place.
“We are aware of the reports circulating on social media regarding an alleged cyber attack on Oracle’s data center in Dubai,” said a spokesperson for the Dubai Government Media Office. “However, we would like to confirm that there is no truth to these reports and that the data center’s systems are functioning normally. We are committed to ensuring the security and stability of our country’s critical infrastructure and will continue to work closely with our international partners to protect against potential threats.”
The reported cyber attack comes at a time of heightened tensions between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Iran. Relations between the two countries have been strained in recent months, with the UAE accusing Iran of supporting armed groups in Yemen. The UAE has also suspended all flights to Tehran in response to a missile attack on the emirate of Abu Dhabi in January.
Oracle Corporation has not released an official statement regarding the reported cyber attack. However, a spokesperson for the company said that they are committed to maintaining the security and integrity of their data centers around the world.
As tensions between the UAE and Iran continue to simmer, it remains to be seen whether this reported cyber attack is the latest in a series of escalations between the two countries. However, one thing is clear: the security and stability of the UAE’s critical infrastructure is of paramount importance, and the Dubai Government Media Office’s denial of the reported incident should provide some reassurance to stakeholders.
