Another Marriott data security breach

There has been yet another Marriott data security breach with this one now being its third major incident in just a few short years.

We have taken legal action for UK victims who were affected by the previous infamous Marriott cybersecurity data breaches, so it is surprising to see yet another event hit the hotelier. We would have thought, given the previous incidents that have taken place, they would have responded to make sure that their cybersecurity prevents this sort of incident occurring. Unfortunately, given that there has been yet another incident, it appears that there are still weaknesses that cybercriminals can exploit.

NHS data security breach compensation claims

NHS data security breach compensation claims are some of the most significant that we represent people for as a leading firm of Data Leak Lawyers in the UK.

Our medical information is some of the most private and personal there can be about us, which is why the law specifically protects it and allows us to control who knows what about our healthcare information. If we were to lose this control as a result of a data security breach, the distress that can be caused can be significant. This is why the law recognises this impact and can allow victims of such a breach to claim GDPR compensation, and we can offer No Win No Fee representation to eligible clients.

You can speak to our team here now for free, no-obligation legal advice.
