Cyberattacks: Sebi chief Pandey calls for stronger defence

MUMBAI: With the rising incidents of public falling victims to cyber crimes, Securities and Exchange Board chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey has called for constant vigilance, regular incident-response drills, and forensic readiness to protect stock exchanges and investors from such escalating online threats. Speaking at a cybersecurity training programme at the Sebi-run National Institute of Securities Markets (NISM) near here on Thursday, Pandey, according to the speech shared by Sebi late last night, warned that even the perception of vulnerability can unsettle markets, irrespective of the immediate financial losses. Recalling the July 2010 Nasdaq breach, where hackers had gained accessed to a system used by corporate boards to share confidential documents, he noted that while trading was unaffected, the incident 'deeply shook the confidence of the market in general and investors in particular.' On July 18, attack a Russian cyber hack had compromised the world's largest tech-stocks listed trading platform primarily targeted the exchange's directors desk portal but not limited to it. Sebi has, in recent years, strengthened cybersecurity norms, mandated regular cyber audits, and tightened reporting on technical glitches across exchanges, clearing corporations, depositories, and market intermediaries, Pandey said, adding 'safeguarding these market utilities is essential for capital formation, investor trust, and economic resilience.' Reeling out the numbers of cyberattacks in the country, he said such attacks are no longer rare as the country has seen over 2 million security incidents in 2024, according to CERT-In, nearly double the pre-pandemic levels. 'A small glitch in a trading algorithm can trigger market disruption in milliseconds. A misconfigured server can give malicious actors a way in. A compromised account can lead to damaging data leaks,' Pandey said, citing the August 2012 Knight Capital trading fiasco that caused $440 million in losses due to faulty trading software.

Vidhan Bhavan Extension Gets In-Principle Nod Of Heritage Panel

Nagpur: The heritage conservation committee granted in-principle approval on Wednesday for the long-awaited expansion of Vidhan Bhavan, Nagpur — a significant step towards modernising the state legislature's Nagpur seat. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Under the plan, Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) will hand over approximately 2,000 sq m of its land to the state government. The panel also directed the civic body to coordinate with the Zero Mile redevelopment team to identify alternative land for parking arrangements. The Maharashtra State Infrastructure Development Corporation (MSIDC) will execute the expansion plan. Executive engineer of MSIDC N V Borkar, in a letter dated July 18, 2025, informed the NMC about a detailed presentation on the proposed construction at Vidhan Bhavan, Nagpur. According to the government-approved heritage list, the site named "Vidhan Sabha, Nagpur" appears at serial number 15 and is listed under Grade I. The ownership of the heritage site rests with the government of Maharashtra. The meeting, chaired by former divisional commissioner Anoop Kumar, with NMC chief engineer Manoj Talewar as member secretary, also paved the way for the removal of illegal constructions along the historical Jumma Darwaza, popularly known as Gandhi Gate. Gandhibagh zone's assistant municipal commissioner, Ganesh Rathore, will be tasked with removing illegal structures abutting the iconic Jumma Darwaza. The Grade I listed gateway has faced repeated encroachments despite its status as a protected heritage asset. Equally historic was the panel's green light to the Nagpur Improvement Trust's ₹6.70 crore project to restore and beautify the neglected resting place of Gond King Bakht Buland Shah, the 18th-century founder of Nagpur, in Sakkardara. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The Grade I heritage site, which also houses the graves of 27 royal family members, had languished in decay for decades. The revival plan promises structural restoration, landscaping, and amenities befitting its historical stature, more than three centuries after the king laid the city's foundations. The meeting also considered proposals to display historical information at the Zero Mile monument to increase public awareness, to host the 2025 Mahamarathon at the Grade II listed Kasturchand Park, and to organise Garba events there. The heritage committee, comprising experts, archaeologists, civic engineers, and representatives from INTACH and the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), stressed that heritage development and urban expansion must move in tandem, with strict enforcement against encroachments and sensitive planning for public infrastructure.
