Tata Electronics Data Breach: Apple iPhone 18 Pro Info Exposed

New Delhi, Jul 3 (PTI) The government is investigating the alleged data breach at Tata Electronics that reportedly exposed sensitive information related to Apple's unreleased iPhone model, with the incident having been reported to the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In).

"We are investigating it... it has been reported to CERT-In," IT Secretary S Krishnan told reporters when asked about the reported cyber incident involving Tata Electronics.


Krishnan's comment -- on the sidelines of a CII Cybersecurity summit -- comes in the wake of a report that details of components and suppliers, along with Apple's iPhone 18 Pro model photos were put on the ‌dark web by a ransomware group that allegedly stole data from Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier.

CERT-In is the national nodal agency for responding to computer security incidents.
