ICO fined construction company 4.4M GBP fine over employee privacy violations
The U.K. Information Commissioner's Office fined construction company Interserve Group 4.4 million GBP over alleged employee data protection issues. The ICO found insufficient security measures that left 113,000 Interserve employees exposed to a phishing scheme that affected contact information, national insurance numbers, and bank account information. Information Commissioner John Edwards said a lack of security measures is "never acceptable" and onlookers can "can expect a similar fine" if a business "doesn't regularly monitor for suspicious activity in its systems and fails to act on warnings."
