In a statement released on Sunday, the AEOI said the reports alleging that the e-mail server of the AEOI’s Nuclear Power Production and Development company has been hacked are part of a media hype whose purpose is attracting public attention.
The statement said a report from the ICT department of the Nuclear Power Production and Development company indicates that the unauthorized access, originating from a certain foreign country, to the company’s e-mail system has resulted in the leak of the contents of a number of e-mails to the virtual space.

According to the statement, the contents of the e-mails of the users included technical messages as well as ordinary, daily and routine correspondence.
