FINALBeschrijving
The Swedish DPA (Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten) fined Karolinska University Hospital of Solna SEK 4,000,000 (EUR 390,100) for failing to implement adequate technical and organizational measures to ensure information security. It was found that there was no risk analysis regarding the access to patient data. Authorizations for users of the hospital information system TakeCare were not assigned according to the principle of minimum access. This gave users full access to confidential patient data that they did not need for work purposes.
