FINALDescription
The Italian DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 75,000 on Azienda ospedale università di Padova. During its investigation, the DPA found that employees had accessed patient files without authorization and that the controller did not have appropriate access restrictions in place. This allowed employees to access patient files that were not necessary for their work, e.g. because they were not treating the patients in question.
