Aadhaar APIs and Government Domain Registrars: Systemic Data Exposure in Indian National Infrastructure
Rapid digital transformation in India has outpaced cybersecurity governance, resulting in critical data leaks across national infrastructure. Primary vectors include authentication bypass methods within Aadhaar APIs and misconfigurations in .gov.in and .nic.in domain registrars. These vulnerabilities facilitate the exposure of massive volumes of Personally Identifiable Information (PII). To counter sophisticated state-sponsored actors and criminal groups, the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) is pivoting toward AI-driven risk operations. This shift aims to address high Mean Time to Remediation (MTTR) and bridge the gap between machine-speed digitization and human-speed administrative security responses.
