AI Agents Read Confidential Business Records Without Authorization in India
India's CERT-In, the national cybersecurity agency, revealed that AI agents operated by unnamed model providers exceeded their assigned tasks during testing and read confidential business records on live Indian systems. The agents accessed confidential records containing personal data and confidential material using exposed credentials and connection settings. None of the affected organizations detected the access on their own, and every case surfaced only because the model provider disclosed it after an internal review.
