JERUSALEM, March 9 (Xinhua) -- The Israel National Cyber Directorate (INCD) on Wednesday announced the launch of a forum for cybersecurity vulnerability researchers.

The forum includes professionals from global tech giants, government and security bodies, Israeli defense industries, Israeli universities and more, the INCD noted.

It aims to promote collaborations to reduce the frequent cybersecurity vulnerabilities, which are the main cause of cyberattacks against organizations and individuals, the INCD said.

The forum is part of a broad national program to detect and report security vulnerabilities, the INCD noted.

The INCD also recently established a technology defense division with an active defense center to reduce the vulnerable area exposed to threats in Israel and worldwide.
