Files Relating to India’s Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant Exposed in Data Breach

Files connected to India’s Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant were allegedly exposed after a breach, highlighting persistent cybersecurity gaps around sensitive critical infrastructure. The Kudankulam site—India’s largest nuclear facility—saw earlier reporting that its administrative network was compromised, with investigators saying core control systems were not impacted. Public documentation and analysis from prior incidents point to malware focusing on non-critical systems, but officials faced scrutiny over how networks were segmented, monitored, and disclosed. Authorities have been urged to strengthen incident response and transparency as threats evolve.
