A new report from a Beijing-based cybersecurity firm said hackers linked with the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) were found to have inserted “covert backdoors” that may have given them access to sensitive information in dozens of countries, including India, Russia, China and Japan.Among the reportedly compromised websites were India’s Institute of Microbial Technology (IMTech), the Indian Academy of Sciences in Bengaluru, and the Banaras Hindu University.
