The ransomware attack exposing 19,000 files from India's Kudankulam NPP raises concerns over cybersecurity's impact on nuclear energy expansion and public trust, even as officials insist no nuclear safety data was compromised.
A ransomware breach at a contractor for India’s largest nuclear plant has exposed 19,000 engineering and supplier files on the dark web, raising alarms about security gaps that could undermine the country's ambitious nuclear energy growth plans.
NPCIL clarified that drawings leaked from a breach at Reliance Infrastructure involve only conventional Balance of Plant systems, not nuclear safety. The 2,000 MW Kudankulam expansion, a key clean energy project, faces heightened scrutiny over supply chain data security.
