Major data breach exposes 815 million Indians' personal information on dark web

<h2>Resecurity's report reveals the breach, prompting a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe. The incident raises concerns about national data security and digital infrastructure vulnerabilities</h2>

Aadhaar Data Leak: A recent report by US-based cybersecurity firm Resecurity has exposed a massive data breach, endangering the personal information of approximately 815 million Indians. The breach, discovered on the dark web, includes sensitive data such as names, phone numbers, addresses, Aadhaar, and passport information.
<h3>Aadhaar Data Breach</h3>
The alarming discovery was made when a threat actor named 'pwn0001' posted a thread on Breach Forums, offering access to 815 million "Indian Citizen Aadhaar &amp; Passport" records on October 9. This revelation is particularly concerning considering India's total population exceeds 1.486 billion people.
Resecurity's investigators, from its HUNTER (HUMINT) unit, established contact with the threat actor, who was willing to sell the entire Aadhaar and Indian passport database for a staggering $80,000.
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is currently probing the breach, initially discovered by the hacker 'pwn0001.' There are indications that the compromised data could be from the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) database, raising further concerns about the leak's origins.
This incident is not the first of its kind. Earlier in June, a data breach occurred when personal data, including details of vaccinated citizens, was allegedly leaked from the CoWin website through a Telegram messenger channel.
This new breach has sent shockwaves through the government, especially as India has been actively working towards digitizing its economy. The government had implemented digital public infrastructure (DPI) based on Aadhaar, individuals&rsquo; mobile numbers, and bank accounts to facilitate the seamless transfer of benefits and promote innovation in the private sector.

UK: teacher jailed for paying and instruction teens in India to abuse younger kids

How teacher at London primary school abused children in India

The accused teacher was arrested in November 2022.

A former deputy head teacher at a London primary school was sentenced to 12-year jail term on August 9 after he pleaded guilty for paying and instruction teens in India to abuse younger kids.
Matthew Smith, 35, from East Dulwich in south London was arrested by the UK&rsquo;s National Crime Agency (NCA) in November last year after its investigators identified that he was sharing abuse material on the dark web and has now been sentenced at Southwark Crown Court in London.
According to the NCA, Smith was online at the time of his arrest, speaking to a teenage boy living in India and asking him to send sexual images of a younger child, in return for money. He also had dark web sites and forums open on his computer which were dedicated to child sexual abuse.
