CBSE has lodged a formal complaint with the Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations (IFSO) Unit of Delhi Police over a series of coordinated cyber attacks targeting its Post-Result Services Portal.
The portal, launched on June 2 to provide services such as verification and re-evaluation of answer scripts for Class XII Board Examination candidates, was subjected to repeated cyber attacks over the past three days.
According to CBSE, the attacks involved large volumes of malicious traffic originating from multiple IP addresses within and outside the country. The apparent objective was to disrupt the platform, deny access to legitimate users and attempt unauthorized extraction of information.
The Board said it approached the IFSO Unit for a detailed investigation and appropriate legal action in view of the scale and coordinated nature of the attacks.
CBSE emphasized that its systems and databases remain secure and uncompromised, with no data breach or unauthorized access detected. The attacks were successfully mitigated through round-the-clock monitoring and response mechanisms.
The Board said cybersecurity teams from IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras, Digital India Corporation, the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), CERT-In and other Central Government agencies assisted in protecting the portal and ensuring uninterrupted services..
