Summary

The Spanish DPA has imposed a fine of EUR 300,000 on KONECTA BTO,S.L. The controller, a service provider that handles customer service for third parties, suffered a data breach that affected 808,000 data subjects. The breach occurred due to an attacker exploiting vulnerabilities in the controller's system that had been identified in previous audits but not addressed. The controller also used insufficient monitoring tools. The original fine of EUR 500,000 was reduced to EUR 300,000 due to immediate payment and admission of responsibility by the controller.
