The Israel National Cyber Directorate said Thursday it has signed a cybersecurity cooperation agreement with Morocco. This is the first cyber-defense accord that has been set up between the two countries since the start of relations last year.
The agreement was signed in Rabat this week in the presence of Yigal Unna, the director general of the Israeli cyber directorate, his Moroccan counterpart General El Mostafa Rabii, and Moroccan defense minister Abdellatif Loudiyi.
The accord is for operational cooperation, research and development and the sharing of information and knowledge, the directorate said.
