Exclusive-Files relating to India's largest nuclear power plant Kudankulam exposed in data breach
Ransomware group World Leaks has posted 19,000 files allegedly from Reliance Group relating to India's Kudankulam nuclear power plant, including purported blueprints of ventilation and cooling systems, supplier lists, and control room layouts. The breach, which occurred on a third-party data centre server, exposes critical infrastructure details that could help adversaries map support systems and identify security vulnerabilities.
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.

You need to call your nuclear customers this week to confirm whether your designs or contract terms were in those 19,000 files.
