Estonian information authority urges attention to cybersecurity following breaches

Posted on July 13, 2019 by Dissent

Baltic News Service reports:

The Information System Authority (RIA) has urged both individuals and businesses to take seriously the issue of data protection and security. The announcement follows several recent, potentially serious data leaks, involving the retail and service sector, as well as one municipality, Baltic News Service reports.

Breaches occurring happened over the past two weeks, and affected charlot.ee online office supplies store, Bewegen bike share service in Tartu, and fuel retailer Olerex.

From July 9, the compromise issues were resolved, but the RIA is keen to highlight the incidents to avoid future reccurences.
