The Ministry of Defence has denied reports of a cyberattack on DRDO, saying investigations found no evidence of a breach or data theft.

The government reaffirmed that DRDO's systems remain secure and urged media to verify information before reporting.
New Delhi: The Ministry of Defence on Tuesday rejected recent media reports claiming a cybersecurity incident involving the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO).
Officials clarified that the reports are both incorrect and unverified, and that a thorough investigation has revealed no evidence of any active cyberattack, unauthorised network intrusion, or ongoing data exfiltration.
