CBSE files complaint with Delhi Police over cyber attacks on Post-Result Services Portal

The attacks reportedly involved a large volume of malicious internet traffic originating from multiple IP addresses both within and outside India. CBSE said the apparent objective of the attackers was to destabilise the portal, deny access to legitimate users, and potentially attempt unauthorised extraction of information. The board noted that such disruptions could adversely affect students and parents seeking post-result services and create unnecessary inconvenience during a crucial admission period.

Despite the scale of the attacks, CBSE has maintained that its systems and databases remain secure. The board clarified that there has been no breach of data, no compromise of confidential information, and no unauthorised access to its databases. It stressed that all cyber threats were successfully mitigated through continuous monitoring and rapid response mechanisms.

CBSE apperciated the efforts of cybersecurity experts from IIT Kanpur, IIT Madras, the Digital India Corporation, the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), CERT-In, and other central government agencies for helping counter the attacks.
