CBFC data breach exposes 500+ film titles, scripts, and licensing deals

An investigation by The Hindu found that documents for over 500 film titles, including scripts, censor board cut orders, and distribution agreements with licensing fees, were accessible online. The breach appears to stem from inadequate security controls at the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), exposing confidential industry data. The full scope and responsible parties remain unclear, but the incident raises significant concerns about data protection in India's regulatory bodies.
