Indian Railways Data Breach: Hackers say data of 3 crore people on sale, railways denies breach

Hackers say data of 3 crore people on sale, railways denies breach
Amid claims by a hackers’ forum that data of over three crore users of Indian Railways is on sale on the dark web, the railway ministry on Wednesday said that no such data breach happened in any of its systems or organisations. Denying the claims, it said there has been no breach of Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) data.

However, it said IRCTC has asked all its business partners to immediately examine whether there is any data leak from their end and apprise the results along with corrective measures.

“On analysis of sample data, it was found that the key pattern does not match with IRCTC history application programming interface. Suspected data breach is not from the IRCTC servers,” a ministry spokesperson said. He said the Railway Board had “shared a possible data breach pertaining to passengers of Indian Railways”.

Information Security - InfoSec - Cyber Security - Firewall Providers Company in India

 

What is Firewall? A Firewall is a network security device that monitors and filters incoming and outgoing network traffic based on an organization's previously established security policies. At its most basic, a firewall is essentially the barrier that sits between a private internal network and the public Internet.

 

Secure your network at the gateway against threats such as intrusions, Viruses, Spyware, Worms, Trojans, Adware, Keyloggers, Malicious Mobile Code (MMC), and other dangerous applications for total protection in a convenient, affordable subscription-based service. Modern threats like web-based malware attacks, targeted attacks, application-layer attacks, and more have had a significantly negative effect on the threat landscape. In fact, more than 80% of all new malware and intrusion attempts are exploiting weaknesses in applications, as opposed to weaknesses in networking components and services. Stateful firewalls with simple packet filtering capabilities were efficient blocking unwanted applications as most applications met the port-protocol expectations. Administrators could promptly prevent an unsafe application from being accessed by users by blocking the associated ports and protocols.
