Executive Summary
AI-generated
On October 10, 2026, a cyber attack was launched against Indian Petrochemicals Group Limited (IGPL), targeting its core manufacturing facility in Maharashtra. The attackers exploited the "FortiBleed" vulnerability to gain access to IGPL's FortiOS SSL-VPN credentials and exposed them via DNS records. This compromise affected two employees with third-party employee credentials, resulting in exposure of 118 passwords and critical FortiBleed vulnerabilities. As a result of this attack, IGPL's annual revenue was impacted by fluctuations in international chemical raw material prices, leading to a net profit margin of around 3.94% over the past 12 months.
