The story

Cybersecurity firm Resecurity faces allegations of exposing an attendee’s personal information during an artificial intelligence demonstration at the FutureCrime Summit 2026 in New Delhi. Attendee Abhijeet Dipke publicly claimed on August 7 that his private data appeared in the live showcase without his consent. Neither Resecurity nor event organizers have issued a public response regarding the allegation as of the report date. The incident raises questions about whether the displayed information was publicly sourced, obtained via consent, or acquired through other means. Indian authorities, including the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, may need to clarify the data provenance if the claims are substantiated. Live demonstrations of investigative AI tools increasingly face scrutiny regarding privacy compliance and ethical data handling in public venues. This controversy highlights the tension between showcasing technical capabilities and protecting individual privacy rights during industry conferences.
