Indian certification authority eMudhra’s private keys compromised – one of them was the number ‘4’

eMudhra’s compromised private keys undermine trust in more than 60 million digital certificates, creating a material risk that attackers could impersonate websites and intercept or alter traffic. For CIOs and technology leaders, this is a reminder that certificate authority trust is a core business dependency: even if browser vendors revoke trust, organizations may still have vulnerable internal apps, APIs, and devices relying on affected certificates, requiring urgent discovery and remediation.
