Files Linked to India's Largest Nuclear Plant Exposed in Data Breach
A ransomware group published 19,000 files allegedly stolen from Reliance Group related to India's Kudankulam nuclear plant, including engineering blueprints, supplier lists, and facility layouts for Units 3 and 4 under construction. Cybersecurity experts warn the leaked infrastructure data could enable adversaries to identify vulnerabilities in support systems and supply chains, even though reactor control systems appear uncompromised.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur, Fusion42's AI co-founder, reasons over.
