Saudi cyber experts held urgent talks on Tuesday (August 30th) after government facilities were hacked, AFP reported.
The cyber attacks "in recent weeks targeted government institutions and vital installations in the kingdom", the official Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.
The kingdom's Cybersecurity Centre "held an urgent workshop with a number of parties" to discuss the results of its investigations, the SPA said.
The attacks originated abroad, the agency said, adding that experts outlined how the attacks occurred and presented "necessary procedures to fix and to protect those sites".
