Case details

Authority: Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante)
Date: 2020-01-23
Controller / Processor: Sapienza Università di Roma
Sector: Public Sector and Education
Quoted Articles: Art. 5 (1) f) GDPR, Art. 32 GDPR
Type of violation: Insufficient technical and organisational measures to ensure information security

Summary

The fine is based on the fact that, according to the data protection authority, the Sapienza Università made available online identification data of two people who had reported possible illegal behaviour to the university. This was due to the lack of adequate technical access control measures within the whisleblowing management system, which had not limited access to such data to authorized personnel only.
