- saptarshinath 6y ago"The volume of data breached is currently unknown. Cyble claims that attackers have demanded 10 ETH, equivalent to USD 4,000." —The attackers clearly don't know anything about Paytm. $4000 is likely their marketing budget per minute!

The weakest link in cybersecurity is the people though. And PayTM has a lot of them!
