RansomEXX, a notorious ransomware group, targeted over 300 small Indian banks, disrupting ATM usage and online payments. C-Edge Technologies, a joint venture between Tata Consultancy Services and State Bank of India, was primarily affected through a vulnerability in a misconfigured Jenkins server. The ransomware attack also affected Brontoo Technology Solutions, a significant collaborator with C-Edge. The National Payments Corporation of India temporarily isolated C-Edge Technologies from its retail payments system to prevent wider impact, and an audit is being conducted to prevent further spread of the attack.
