Hackers took 25 crores from a Thane-based company’s escrow bank account during a significant cyberattack. The construction company had placed the funds in the escrow account as a condition of a contract with another business.
The money was transferred to the hackers’ own accounts once they got access to the business’s computer systems. The police are looking into the situation after receiving a complaint from the corporation.
This is the most recent in a string of cyberattacks against Indian companies. Numerous prominent attacks have occurred recently, including the hacking of the Reserve Bank of India and the National Stock Exchange.
For enterprises in India, the frequency of cyberattacks is a serious problem. The issue has received some attention from the government, but more has to be done to strengthen cyber security.
