Hello ma'am

Sensitive information belonging to 81.5 crore [815 Million] Indians has surfaced on the dark web, potentially constituting the largest data breach in India's history. The breach came to light through the actions of 'pwn0001,' a hacker who openly advertised the pilfered data on the dark web. This data is suspected to have originated from the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) during the course of COVID-19 testing, though the precise source remains undisclosed. According to the hacker's disclosures, the stolen information encompasses Aadhaar and passport details, as well as names, phone numbers, and both temporary and permanent addresses of millions of Indian citizens. The hacker asserts that this trove of data is derived from ICMR's COVID-19 testing records.

The initial detection of this data breach was made by Resecurity, a cybersecurity and intelligence agency based in the United States. On October 9, 'pwn0001' unveiled specifics about the breach on Breach Forums, advertising the availability of a staggering 815 million records, including data related to "Indian Citizen Aadhaar & Passport." To put this into perspective, India's population exceeds 1.486 billion individuals.

Resecurity's researchers identified approximately 100,000 files containing personal information of Indian citizens among the leaked data. To verify their accuracy, some of these records were cross-referenced using the government portal's "Verify Aadhaar" feature, confirming the authenticity of the Aadhaar details.

As per a report by News18, the Computer Emergency Response Team of India (CERT-In) has notified ICMR about the breach. The COVID-19 testing data is distributed across various governmental bodies such as the National Informatics Centre (NIC), ICMR, and the Ministry of Health, making it a challenge to pinpoint the exact source of the breach.

As of the time of reporting, there has been no official response to the breach from the Ministry of Information and Technology or other relevant agencies.
