Norwegian Parliament

คำอธิบาย

The Norwegian DPA has fined the Norwegian Parliament EUR195,000. The parliament had suffered a data breach in which unauthorized persons gained access to the email accounts of members of parliament and parliamentary administrative staff. The attackers had succeeded in siphoning off the data, including personal data on bank accounts, dates of birth and health-related data. During its investigation, the DPA found that the parliament did not incorporate sufficient security mechanisms, such as two-factor authentication, even though a risk analysis in 2020 had found that this posed a high privacy risk. For this reason, the DPA found that the parliamentary administration had not taken appropriate technical and organizational measures to achieve a sufficient level of security.
