A data embassy refers to a secure data storage facility established in a foreign country under the jurisdiction and sovereignty of the originating nation. Unlike conventional data centres, these embassies function similarly to diplomatic embassies, enjoying legal protections that safeguard them from external threats, including local government interference and cyber espionage.
MSMEs are particularly vulnerable to cyberattacks due to various factors, including nation-state attackers from envious countries.
In recent years, India has seen a dramatic increase in cyberattacks, with the average website experiencing **6.9 million unwanted requests annually**, according to Indusface. Alarmingly, this is **26% higher than the global average**, making Indian businesses, particularly Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), highly vulnerable. **Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks** are also disproportionately affecting Indian companies compared to global counterparts.
For MSMEs, which form the backbone of India’s economy, these attacks pose a severe threat. Unlike large corporations, MSMEs often lack **robust cybersecurity infrastructure**, making them prime targets for cybercriminals. The impact of such attacks extends beyond financial loss—**operational disruptions, reputational damage, and legal consequences** can cripple a business overnight.
CWE-77 refers to the improper neutralisation of special elements used in a command. These special elements, when inadequately sanitised, allow attackers to inject malicious commands that the system interprets and executes. This vulnerability commonly appears in applications that dynamically construct system commands based on user inputs.

**JSON Injection** is a form of **injection vulnerability** that occurs when an application improperly handles user input within a JSON object. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is widely used for data exchange between web clients and servers. When applications fail to validate or sanitize user input before incorporating it into a JSON object, attackers can inject malicious data, manipulating the application’s behaviour.
JSON Injection primarily targets the integrity of the data being exchanged, potentially altering application logic, bypassing authentication, or even leading to more severe attacks like remote code execution. It is particularly dangerous in systems that use JSON for configuration files, user inputs, or data transfer, which is the case in many modern web applications.
