FINAL説明
The Italian DPA (Garante) has fined Casa di cura Fondazione Gaetano e Piera Borghi s.r.l. EUR 30,000. The nursing home notified the DPA of a data breach pursuant to Art. 33 GDPR. The facility had suffered a cyber attack by a hacker who gained access to personal data and published it. This included publishing radiological images of patients on his Twitter account. The DPA's investigation revealed that the home had only secured the data with simple passwords. For this reason, the DPA found that the home had failed to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of protection commensurate with the risk.
