Iran has proposed to Interpol to create an international cyber coalition against the "Islamic State” (aka IS, ISIL, ISIS, Daesh) terrorist group, Commander of Iran’s FETA (cyber) Police Kamal Hadianfar said.

The initiative which also included a report on IS activities on cyberspace around the world was welcomed by the Interpol, which thanked FETA for it, Hadianfar said, IRIB news agency reported Oct. 3.

Today, 75,000 users affiliated to the IS are operating around the world on social media and elsewhere, he noted.

He also provided details on a recent cyber attack on Iran, claimed to be carried out by Saudi Arabia.

"The attacks were carried out under the name ‘Daes’ from Turkey and Italy. We identified the IPs and reported them to Interpol.”

However, he said, Tehran’s efforts to draw some response on the attacks from Saudi Arabia have failed.
