Armenian state officials log into their free online email accounts and
into different chatrooms while at work, said RA Presidential Staff
Public Relations and Information Department Chair and IT specialist
Ara Saghatelyan at a press conference today. According to him, these
actions puts the security of internal data at risk.

We have an issue of a lack of "information hygiene," said Saghatelyan.

"How to explain to officials not to log into Odnoklassniki [a sort
of Russian-language Facebook] from state computers?"

The state employee also added that it’s not possible to shut down
in a year that which has been open for many years. On this matter,
he said, we will organize corresponding lectures in the second half
of this year.
