Earlier this month, German Interior Minister Alexander Dobrindt travelled to Tel Aviv to sign a cyber defence cooperation agreement with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In a statement, Dobrindt said Germany is keen to learn from Israel’s experience in building its “cyber dome,” referring to Israel’s relatively new cyber defence system, which was demonstrated during his visit.
