The Punjab National Bank (PNB) has denied media reports that over 180 million customers’ data has been breached or exposed, adding that the bank is certified with ISO 27001 standards for information security practices.
PNB responded to media reports published Sunday, based on the findings by Chandigarh-based cybersecurity firm CyberX9, with a statement the next day. “There has been no breach of systems and pilferage of any personal data of any of our customers and account holders of PNB,” the banking giant said.
