Apple iPhone 18 Pro specs leaked after Tata Electronics cyberattack in India
A ransomware group identified as World Leaks breached Tata Electronics, one of Apple's key manufacturing partners in India, stealing more than 630 GB of data and over 200,000 files. The leaked material includes confidential schematics for the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro, details of the A20 Pro processor and the C2 modem, as well as design documents for Tesla components.
Tata Electronics confirmed the cybersecurity incident, stating that its production lines remain unaffected and that a response protocol was activated immediately. Apple has opened a full investigation but has not publicly verified the authenticity of the leaked documents. The breach underscores the rising cyber‑risk exposure of suppliers as India expands its role in the global technology supply chain.
Analysts note that the incident highlights how attackers are targeting not only headline brands but also their manufacturing partners, whose internal repositories hold sensitive information from multiple multinational corporations.
