Description

The Spanish DPA has fined IBERDROLA, S.A. EUR 3 million following a cyberattack on I-DE Redes, which led to the compromise of customer data from millions of individuals. Although the cyberattack targeted the GEA web application of I-DE Redes, Iberdrola, as the entity responsible for managing the group's IT systems and security infrastructure, was found to have failed in implementing sufficient security measures to prevent the incident.
