Customer Data from India's Bank of Baroda Leaked Online, Source and Researcher Say
Customer data from India's state-run Bank of Baroda, along with internal documents, has been leaked on the dark web, according to a source familiar with the matter and cybersecurity researcher Srikanth L, founder of Cashless Consumer. The leaked data includes customer details, identification documents, loan papers, and internal audit records. Preliminary indications suggest the incident stemmed from a compromised email system. The data appeared on a dark web site on Saturday night and was advertised as a cache containing more than 700 gigabytes of information. The bank is conducting a forensic audit, but has not notified stock exchanges of any breach. Bank of Baroda, the Reserve Bank of India, and India's cybersecurity regulator CERT-In did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The leak comes amid growing cybersecurity concerns for large companies and financial institutions.
