Indian Securities Depository Hit by Malware Attack

India’s Central Securities Depositary Limited (CSDL) has reported the detection of malware on its systems.

In a filing with the National Stock Exchange, CSDL stated that the malware was found “in a few of its internal machines.”

“As a matter of abundant caution, the Company immediately isolated the machines and disconnected itself from other constituents of the capital market,” the filing explained. CSDL reassured that there is “no reason to believe” that confidential information or investor data has been compromised.
