Operation Sindoor: In this situation of increasing tension between India and Pakistan, the country's banks are also fully prepared to face any possible cyber attack.
Operation Sindoor: India has carried out air strikes on terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Pakistan, enraged by this attack, is also continuously firing on the LoC. In this situation of tension between the two countries, banks in the border areas have also increased their security given the increasing threat of retaliatory attack.
Banks are also ready to deal with cyber attacks.
According to a report by Financial Express, MD and CEO of Punjab National Bank Ashok Chandra has said, "We have strengthened our cyber security mechanism. To prevent cyber attacks, we have also created a war room, which is operational 24 hours a day. We are ready to deal with any situation.'' He further said that security has been increased in the branches bordering Pakistan and arrangements have also been made for the safety of the employees.
Anti-cyber attack mechanism strengthened
A senior officer of another government bank said, ''Banks have established anti-cyber attack mechanism to face any possible attack. ATMs in the border area have also been filled with money so that customers do not face any kind of problem.''
India took revenge for Pahalgam attack
In response to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir on April 22, the Indian Army carried out pin point missile attacks on nine terrorist hideouts on the intervening night of Tuesday-Wednesday. These included Bahawalpur, the stronghold of Jaish-e-Mohammed and Muridke, the hideout of Lashkar-e-Taiba. 26 people were killed in the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, most of whom were tourists. India took its revenge exactly on the 15th day of this attack.
NSE, BSE websites also closed
Amid the rapid action of the Indian Army under 'Operation Sindoor', keeping cyber security in mind, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) have temporarily closed their websites for foreign users. However, foreign investors can still trade in the Indian markets, but now they will have to do so through their broker.
