We focus on the latest news surrounding data breaches, leaks and hacks plus daily internet security articles.
Last month saw us marking the fourth anniversary of the GDPR. As leading data breach compensation lawyers, we ask: have things changed?
Given the number of events that have taken place in recent times, it seems that much more still needs to be done to safeguard personal information. We represent thousands of people for cases now on a No Win, No Fee basis, which shows that breaches are still taking place at a monumental rate.
In some cases, cybercriminals can steal from you directly, using stolen bank details or by hacking your online accounts to make unauthorised payments or transfers. However, there are other cases in which criminals can manipulate their victims by using misleading and fraudulent communication to trick people into handing over private information, or overtly blackmailing them into doing so. When victims receive threats from hackers, they can feel incredibly vulnerable, and it may feel difficult to know what to do.
The current state of cybercrime is such that there are very few of us who will have never been targeted with fraudulent messages or calls. Data breach victims can become even more vulnerable to such communication, some of which can be incredibly threatening in nature. As details exposed in data breaches can fall into the hands of criminals, data controllers can be held responsible for any harm caused to victims.
The link between data breaches and cybercrime is clear, which is why companies in possession of personal information must do their utmost to protect it. Where they fail to do so, they can be held liable through data breach compensation claims made by the victims.
Serious data breach claims for compensation require the expertise of a specialist law firm used to helping people in this niche and complex area of law to ensure justice is achieved.
It is important to point this out because we are specialist privacy claims lawyers and we know how to maximise your claim for compensation to ensure fair justice is achieved. This is vitally important in an age where the law in respect of data breach claiming is still evolving. The last thing you want is to instruct the wrong law firm for a case like this and lose out on the justice that you are entitled to.
