ISRO warned of a possible cyberattack when Dtrack came calling

BENGALURU: India’s space agency received an alert of a possible cyberattack on its systems early this year, which analysts said was through phishing emails targeted at senior officials.

An Indian Space Research Organisation official confirmed that an alert was received from the Computer Emergency Response Team, India (CERT-In), but the space agency was not affected. The alert came around the time of the Chandrayaan-2 mission.
