Bombay High Court Issues Injunction Prohibiting Hackers From Publishing Allegedly Hacked HDFC Investor Data

The Bombay High Court granted interim relief to HDFC Asset Management after an alleged ransomware intrusion by a group called “Morpheus” reportedly exfiltrated over 680 GB of sensitive customer, employee, and business data (names, addresses, PAN, bank details, investment records). The court issued a John Doe order restraining unidentified parties from publishing the data and directed authorities to block related online accounts, while reporting found no active listing for HDFC on the group’s leak site at the time.
