Cyber security solutions company Seqrite, along with its partner seQtree detected and notified the Indian government about a possible breach of India’s National Internet Registry – IRINN (Indian Registry for Internet Names and Numbers), the company informed via a blog post. Apparently, the hacker(s) had advertised “access to the servers and database dump of an unspecified Internet Registry” on a Darknet platform, which Seqrite and seQtree identified as IRINN.

Seqrite?I think thats Quickheal. Sounds very suspicious. To the best of my knowledge, these guys have negligible, if not zero capabilities in detection of this kind of stuff.[DOUBLEPOST=1507043060][/DOUBLEPOST]Looks like news people are following TE or whatever source @Crazy_Eddy saw, ET and BS has published articles on this today evening :p

Yeah looks like their Enterprise brand. Even I don't seen Quickheal on AV-comparatives these days, but maybe they've improved. They put up screenshots in their blog post : http://blogs.seqrite.com/cyber-intelligence-averted-major-internet-service-disruption-in-india/ - does it seem legit?
