Content
The French DPA (CNIL) fined a doctor EUR 3,000 for violations of Art. 32 GDPR and Art. 33 GDPR. The controller had stored medical image data as MRI and X-ray images as well as personal data such as the names, dates of birth and treatment data of his patients on his computer. The controller had not taken appropriate technical measures to ensure the security of the data, and as a consequence, access to his patients' data was possible for anyone without access protection. The data protection authority notes that the data had been exposed for about four months.
