‘Cyberattack’ reported at Oil India Limited HQ in Assam; probe underway
A purported cyberattack on Oil India Limited (OIL) has led the PSU major to disable its IT systems at its headquarters at Duliajan in Assam’s Dibrugarh district since Sunday.
An FIR has been lodged at the Duliajan police station, and the Cyber Cell of the Assam Police is probing the matter.
“We detected the outages in our computers on Sunday. As per protocol, we disabled our systems as a precautionary measure,” OIL spokesperson Tridiv Hazarika said.
“While the breach has impacted some servers and computers, on evaluation, we have noticed that there has not been any worrisome impact on our data bank,” he said.
