The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) warned banks, NBFCs and fintech startups in an advisory issued on November 3, after its National Cybercrime Threat Analysis Unit (NCTAU) found attackers using AI agents on unpatched software and misconfigured servers to reach financial infrastructure. The agency said it had found multiple cases in which malicious agentic AI systems made unauthorised transactions running into crores of rupees. It advised institutions to implement CERT-In’s critical advisories urgently, report cyber incidents to CERT-In within six hours, and test payment APIs.
