DeepSeek Under Scrutiny: India Flags Cyber Risks in Advisory

The Indian government is preparing to release an advisory warning users about potential data privacy and cyber spying risks associated with the Chinese artificial intelligence tool, DeepSeek. Following a comprehensive investigation by the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In), concerns have been raised regarding .DeepSeek's extensive data collection practices, including tracking user behavior and device information. Similar concerns have led countries like Italy and Australia to ban the use of such AI tools on official devices. The advisory aims to inform Indian citizens and organizations about the potential threats posed by DeepSeek and to encourage caution in its usage.
