India-based ICICI bank has leaked millions of private user data records.
The company operates in 15 countries globally.
- The kind of information that has leaked includes:

- personal identification documents,
- and resumes that belong to employees and job candidates.
- In
2022, the ICICI Bank's resources were named critical

cyberattack against the company would be classified as a national
security risk.
