A ransomware group has claimed responsibility for a data breach involving files linked to the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant, India's largest nuclear facility. The hackers allegedly published thousands of documents, including purported blueprints, supplier details and project records, on the dark web after targeting contractor Reliance Infrastructure. The company confirmed a partial breach involving a third-party server hosted by Yotta and said the government has been informed. Authorities, including CERT-In, are investigating the incident. Officials said there is no evidence that the leaked documents relate to the plant's core nuclear reactor systems supplied by Russia's Rosatom. (PC: India Today)
