CloudSEK, a cybersecurity start-up that leverages Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to combat cyber threats, has given credence to media reports about a malicious actor promoting a Telegram bot that reportedly provided access to the personal information of Indian citizens who had registered for COVID-19 vaccines through the Central government portal CoWIN.
The bot claimed to offer personally identifiable information (PII) data.
Telegram is a mobile and desktop-based messaging app.
