India's Ministry of Electronics & IT released the second Digital Threat Report for BFSI, identifying AI asymmetry and accelerated threat-to-exploitation timelines as defining risks; six of seven prior-year predictions have already materialised, with attacks now indistinguishable from legitimate transactions until damage occurs.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

If you sell security or compliance to Indian banks, your entire value story just shifted: attacks now look like normal transactions, so detection-only defences fail, and regulators now expect continuous risk assessment, not periodic audits. Your product either maps to this new model or it's obsolete.
