A new revelation has come to light in the Delhi AIIMS server hacking case. The officials probing the hacking have pointed to China. It has been told that 5 servers of AIIMS were hacked. According to IFSO, personal data has also been leaked during the hacking. This data is also likely to be on the main domain of the dark web. Due to this, the possibility of leaking the secret data of lakhs of patients including VVIPs of India has increased. However, officials are denying that any data has been compromised.
First, know what is the dark web
It's part of Internet searching, but it can't normally be found on a search engine. To open this type of site, a special browser is required, which is called Tor. The sites of the dark web are hidden with the help of the Tor encryption tool. In such a situation, if a user accesses these in the wrong way, then there is a danger of his data being stolen.
Two Chinese groups behind the cyber attack
According to cyber experts, two Chinese ransomware groups – Emperor Dragonfly and Bronze Starlight (DEV-0401) could be behind this attack. However, it is yet to be confirmed. A second suspect is a group called Life, which is believed to be a new version of the ransomware called Vanaren. The investigation also suggests that the hackers may have started putting the data up for sale on the dark web after their demands were not met.
The hackers demanded a ransom of ₹200 crores from AIIMS
Last Tuesday, those who hacked the server of AIIMS Delhi demanded Rs 200 crore. The hackers had asked to make the payment in cryptocurrency. However, the Delhi Police refused to demand any kind of ransom.
