Bank of Baroda Confirms 1TB Data Breach via Employee Email CompromisePreviousNext

Bank of Baroda confirmed a data breach involving unauthorized access to about 1TB of sensitive customer and internal banking information after an employee's email account was compromised. The leaked data reportedly includes Aadhaar numbers, account details, loan records, net banking information, and internal audit documents from multiple branches. The bank stated its core banking systems remain secure and has initiated a forensic investigation while cooperating with authorities. No hacker has officially claimed responsibility, though the ransomware group TripleX is suspected.
