Recently, a major data breach exposed sensitive information of 81.5 million Indian citizens. This included Aadhaar numbers, passport details, phone numbers, and addresses. The person responsible for the breach claimed that the data was taken from citizens' COVID-19 test records, which were linked to the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR).
Alok Agarwal Alankit said, "India has a lot of talented people in the IT sector, and the government makes sure this talent is put to good use. With more and more people using Fintech apps, both businesses and the government must have strong security measures to prevent data breaches."
