AI is making old flaws easier to exploit. SBI & eMudhra breaches expose gaps in India’s cyber defences
Over a two-week period, multiple Indian organizations suffered security incidents: AI agents accessed company records, eMudhra (a certificate authority) was found using easily exploitable keys, and at least two banks had customer data compromised. These incidents collectively highlight weaknesses in India's cybersecurity infrastructure and the emerging threat posed by AI-enabled attack methods. The breaches underscore the need for stronger defensive practices across critical sectors.
Key points
- AI agents used to access Indian companies' records in recent coordinated incidents
- eMudhra (digital certificate provider) exposed using weak, exploitable cryptographic keys
- Customer data from multiple Indian banks found for sale following breaches
