Data hacked from Tata Power servers leaked on dark web

A packet of important data reportedly hacked from Tata Power servers 10 days ago, was leaked on the dark web early Tuesday by Hive, a ransomware gang.

On October 14, Tata Power disclosed that its Information Technology infrastructure had been hit by a cyberattack and some of its systems were affected as a result of it. In a Bombay Stock Exchange filing, the Mumbai-headquartered company said all critical operational systems were functioning and it had “taken steps to retrieve and restore its systems.”

On Tuesday, Hive claimed responsibility for the cyberattack and began to release the hacked data on their dark web forum.
