FINALDescription
The Irish DPA (DPC) fined Tusla Child and Family Agency EUR 85,000. The controller had reported 71 data breaches to the Irish DPA that occurred between May 25 and November 16, 2018, and concerned the unauthorized access of personal data processed by the controller. After a broad investigation, the DPA concluded that the controller failed to implement adequate technical and organizational measures to protect the data processing and thus violated Art. 32 (1) of the GDPR.
