Wing Commander Arrested for Spying After Being 'Honey Trapped' by Pak Operatives The recent arrest of an Indian Air Force (IAF) Wing Commander on charges of leaking sensitive defense information to Pakistani intelligence operatives has exposed the vulnerability of military personnel to social media honey traps.
This incident is not an isolated case, but rather one example of a complex web of cyber espionage that threatens national security.
According to officials, the Pakistani operatives used social media to befriend and manipulate the IAF officer, luring him into sharing classified documents and strategic information with his online acquaintances.
