In recent years, the world has undergone a digital revolution, with technology pervading so many aspects of our lives in ways we often barely notice. These digital advances bring with them many benefits, but the side effects of security problems are something that businesses and manufacturers sometimes fail to bring under control. There have, therefore, been many cases of criminals exposing digitisation flaws, exploiting these vulnerabilities to commit theft and fraud.
Despite the difficulties of adjusting to a new, digital world, there is now no excuse for businesses with holes in the defences of their digital systems and servers. In accordance with the GDPR, the principal piece of data protection legislation in the UK, all individuals and organisations that control, store and process personal data must ensure that there are appropriate protections in place for the sensitive personal information in their possession.
Where third parties fail to meet this obligation, they can also be held accountable via data breach claims. If you believe you have been the victim of a data protection breach, you may be able to claim compensation for the harm caused on a No Win, No Fee basis now.
The importance of company security within an organisation cannot be understated, and it is also important for victims of a GDPR breach to understand their rights to claim compensation.

When cyberattacks hit businesses and other organisations, it is often the impact on customers that is considered, given that the exposure of their information can cause serious implications, both for them and for the reputation of the hacked organisation. Yet cyberattacks affecting employees can be equally severe, as their employers often hold extensive personal information about them.
As an employee, a data breach by your employer can put you in an uncomfortable position, leaving you unsure about what action you can take. It may feel difficult to hold your employer accountable for a cybersecurity incident but, if your data has been compromised by their actions or inaction, you may be able to make a data breach compensation claim.
At Your Lawyers – The Data Leak Lawyers – we have been representing claimants for matters relating to data privacy since 2014, honing our expertise in this still-developing area of law. We strongly believe that anyone who has been affected by a data breach should be able to access legal representation. If your privacy has been compromised by a data controller, contact us to receive free, no-obligation advice about your potential claim.
Previous data found that cyberattacks on the aviation industry had increased significantly in recent years, with commercial airlines reportedly suffering the heaviest blows. Unfortunately, such rises come as little surprise to us, and will likely not shock many others. Numerous airline cyberattacks in recent years have caused us to become accustomed to this sort of problem.
From British Airways to Air India, we have seen a number of high-profile cyber incidents involving airlines over the past few years, some of which have subsequently resulted in major data breach group actions. Given that aviation companies hold huge quantities of often highly sensitive personal information, it is natural that they are prime targets for hackers seeking to steal information. What can be harder to accept is that airlines keep failing to defend themselves against such attacks.
If you have had your personal data exposed as a result of an airline cyberattack, you may be able to recover compensation for the harm you have been caused. Our involvement in the group legal actions against both British Airways and easyJet means that we are an expert firm to come to for your data breach claim.
It is understood that the WH Smith cyberattack resulted in the information of current and former employees being targeted, and possibly misused and exposed.
If it is the case that there was more that the company should have done to have protected the information that has been affected, they could be liable and they could be in breach of the GDPR. Any organisation in breach of the GDPR may be responsible for compensating victims.
