Speaking of the CBSE controversy, the On-Screen Marking (OSM) portal was hacked once again, and the viral ‘Nepu Nepu Nepu' meme was posted on it, reports Hacker Ignites. In a weird new development of the story, the On-Screen Marking (OSM) portal was compromised by a cybersecurity researcher, a 19-year-old, and they apparently posted the viral ‘Nepu Nepu Nepu' meme, reports Hacker Ignites. The teenager, who in February revealed vulnerabilities, was allegedly able to access the entire system, using the government assessment page as a meme compilation page.

This comes as another gaffe in the midst of heavy criticism faced by CBSE due to result glitches, poor answer sheet scans, and the disparities in marking sheets. Meanwhile, while CSSE has stated there's no breach in its live evaluation portal and admitted the website was a test setup, screenshots and videos showing it are spreading like wildfire on the internet.

The 'Nepu Nepu Nepu' meme has now morphed into a more serious security threat problem, turning internet memes into comedy, but at the cost of further jeopardizing the board's digital solutions. As the call for a full investigation has been picked up more fervently within social media, students are demanding more accountability. The latest episode outlines significant shortcomings in the exam security system in India.
