The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has publicly addressed the security issues surrounding its On-Screen Marking (OSM) system, acknowledging vulnerabilities and stating that it is actively working to enhance the system's security. An expert panel, including cybersecurity professionals from government agencies and Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs), has been established to identify and mitigate potential threats. CBSE has expressed gratitude to ethical hackers for their assistance in identifying security flaws and has invited further reports of vulnerabilities via email. In a related development, Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition, met with Class 12 student Vedant Shrivastava, who gained attention after receiving the wrong answer sheet due to the OSM system. During their meeting, they discussed the backlash faced by students, including being labeled as 'anti-national' and 'deep state agents' for questioning the CBSE's actions. This incident has sparked public outcry and raised concerns about the integrity of the examination process.
