Description
The Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) has issued a $150,000 fine to a company for violating data protection regulations following a data breach. The company failed to notify authorities of the breach within the required 72-hour window, and had inadequate security measures in place, leading to unauthorized access of personal data. Although the QFC opted not to publicly censure the company, recognizing its cooperation and efforts to strengthen its data security, the incident underscores the importance of data protection compliance for companies operating in the region.
