India’s response “Operation Sindoor”:
Indian cybersecurity experts and agencies are monitoring cyberspace to detect additional attacks.
Indian banks have also strengthened their cybersecurity to avoid cyber threats.

These cyber attacks may be in response to “Operation Sindoor” launched by India after the Pahalgam attack, in which India attacked nine terrorist bases in Pakistan and PoK.
Pakistan termed these attacks as attacks on “civilian targets” and threatened retaliation.
