My neighbor Sharma ji knocked on my door looking worried. He held up his phone and pointed at news alerts about What was leaked in the Censor Board data breach.<\/p>\n
“Is my family’s private data leaked online?” he asked me with wide eyes. “I don’t understand half of these technical words.”<\/p>\n
I told him not to panic. You don’t need a computer science degree to understand what happened.<\/p>\n
Think of it like this. You have a small black diary with all your friends’ phone numbers and house addresses. You keep it in your office drawer. One night, an office cleaner took photos of every page on his phone.<\/p>\n
The cleaner didn’t steal the diary itself. The notebook is still sitting right there in your drawer. But someone else has the phone numbers in their pocket now.<\/p>\n
That is what happened in the CBFC Censor Board Data Breach. A computer database had an open gap. and unauthorized people copied customer phone numbers. names, and notes.<\/p>\n
With those phone numbers. thieves call people pretending to be bank staff. threatening electricity cutoffs, or demanding OTPs.<\/p>\n
Rule 1: Never whisper, type, or speak an OTP to any human on a phone call. Not even if they claim to be the bank manager. Real banks never ask for it.<\/p>\n
Rule 2: Don’t tap blue links sent by SMS numbers you don’t recognize. Just ignore them.<\/p>\n
Nobody has the time to sit all day reading cyber crime reports or monitoring dark web forums to see if their personal details were posted online.<\/p>\n
That is why tools like CYBX exist.<\/p>\n
