An NBFC payout API is a digital interface that can allow authorized systems to initiate or process payments and disbursements through connected financial infrastructure.

If authentication, access controls or API credentials are compromised, attackers may attempt unauthorized transactions or manipulate payment instructions. The exact method depends on the security weakness involved.
3. Does an NBFC payout API cyber attack mean every transaction is fraudulent?
