How Did 19,000 Files From India's Kudankulam Nuclear Plant Leak? Explained ft. Varun | Jist

A massive cyber incident has raised fresh concerns over India's critical infrastructure after 19,000 files allegedly linked to the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant surfaced on the dark web. While officials maintain that the reactor and control systems remain secure, the leaked documents reportedly include blueprints, floor layouts, technical records, vendor details, and other sensitive project information. How did these files leak, what did hackers actually gain access to, and does this pose a real threat to India's nuclear security?

In this video, we break down the Kudankulam data leak, the alleged role of the World Leaks ransomware group, the supply chain attack involving a project contractor, the official response from NPCIL and CERT-In, and what cybersecurity experts are saying about the incident. We also explain why this case is less about a hacked reactor and more about the growing risks to critical infrastructure through third-party vendors and supply chain vulnerabilities.
