Birmingham Court fines pair over data breaches
The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has warned that employees could face criminal charges if they access or share personal data without a valid reason.
The warning came after a Birmingham Magistrates’ Court fined two workers in separate cases for breaching data protection laws in 2017. Both individuals pleaded guilty to violations under the same sections of the Data Protection Act 1998.
