What happened

The DPA held that a public national institution failed to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures under Article 32 GDPR, leading to a serious data breach, and imposed a €5,000,000 fine, an injunction to strengthen security and access controls, and a daily penalty of €5,000 for non-compliance.
