Padmanabhaswamy Temple Computer System Hacked; Probe Underway
The computer system at the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple was hacked, which means someone broke into it without permission.
The attack started around June 13 and might have been done to mess up the temple's work or steal information.
The hackers may have accessed important information, like money transactions.
Police think it could be related to disagreements between people working at the temple.
A person who used to manage the computer system was replaced, and they are suspected of still accessing the system.
The police are looking into whether this was done for financial gain and if any of the temple's online financial operations were affected.
Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple's computer system and database were reportedly hacked.
The cyber breach was reported to the Cyber Police, leading to a case registration.
The hacking attempt allegedly began on June 13, with intent to disrupt temple operations.
Sensitive financial data, including transaction records, was reportedly compromised.
Internal disputes and a recently replaced staff member are potential factors in the investigation.
