Summary

The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine on CAJA RURAL DE ARAGÓN, S.C.C.. The controller had suffered a cyber attack in which the attackers were able to access customer data due to a security vulnerability in its systems. The DPA found that the company had failed to implement the necessary security measures that could have prevented such an incident. The original fine of EUR 15,000 was reduced to EUR 12,000 due to voluntary payment.
