And that created the necessity of setting up an expert group ensuring the security of Armenian Web sites. It's hard to say now whether such mass attacks are funded by Azerbaijani government, Aslanyan said. Over 70 individuals, including technical specialists and journalists, have expressed willingness to join the group. There are no representatives of state government bodies among them. Additional 10 days are required for finally forming the group, company's director said, adding that they ruled out illegal activities, such as breaking Azerbaijani or any other Web sites.
