- The Indian government has issued a warning that cybercriminals are targeting its naval officers and their families in order to obtain sensitive information from them.
- This comes at a time when threat actors are increasingly targeting Indian defense professionals, particularly bodies such as the Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO), because of the regularity with which they deal with sensitive material.
- The advisory by the Indian Navy from last month said, “In addition to government agencies, personal devices of Naval personnel and their families are also being targeted to extract information.”
