According to the dark web seller, Tailmon, the stolen data consists of Indian legal documents, Indian police records including chargesheets, court case documents, and other files and folders.  

The said individual is a “God Level” user on the leak site and seems to be using Tailmon, Yagami Hikari’s Digimon partner and a main character in the Digimon Adventure series, as their profile picture.  

“I’m selling more than 900m (600GB) records/docs of Indian legal documents, arrested/accused people, and police/court reports… documents OCRed in JSON format and contains links to the original PDF file”, read the post shared by Tailmon on the data leak website on March 13, 2023.

In recent years, several instances of data breaches and cyber attacks have highlighted the importance of data security and privacy. The sale of this data further emphasizes the need for stringent measures to protect sensitive information. 

Indian government data leak: The first line of mitigation in cyberattacks 

The Indian government must take immediate action to investigate this matter and take necessary steps to prevent the sale of such sensitive information.  

The authorities must also enforce stricter regulations to ensure that companies and individuals handling personal information adhere to data protection laws. 

Moreover, this incident is a reminder to individuals and organizations to take appropriate measures to safeguard their data. This includes investing in secure networks, training employees on data security best practices, and regularly updating their security protocols to stay ahead of potential threats. 

In conclusion, the sale of a database containing sensitive legal documents of Indian citizens is a cause for concern and calls for immediate action to prevent the misuse of personal information.  

This incident serves as a wake-up call for the Indian government, companies, and individuals to prioritize data security and privacy and take necessary steps to prevent data breaches and cyber attacks.
