Sensitive information the Department for Work and Pensions holds

The Department for Work and Pensions stores and processes a significant volume of very personal and sensitive information about millions of people. Some of this data is so sensitive that it can be classed as “special category” information in accordance with the GDPR, which can afford it additional protection given the nature of it. We could be talking about financial data, private medical information, and sensitive domestic data that could all cause a significant impact if it is misused or exposed.

Because of this, the Department for Work and Pensions must make sure that it deploys the best possible practices in respect of data protection and cybersecurity. They will be a clear target for hackers given the nature and volume of the information that they store and process, so this must be recognised to make sure that everything is done to protect the data in its charge. It could only take one flaw in the security of systems and servers and hackers could potentially gain access to a substantial wealth of incredibly sensitive data.

The need for specialist privacy claims lawyers

If you have been affected by a data breach involving the Department for Work and Pensions, it is likely that the impact on you will be substantial given the above in respect to the nature of the information they hold. Because of this, it is essential that you instruct specialist privacy claims lawyers with a long history in representing people for serious data breach compensation cases.

This is exactly what we offer.

We have been working in this niche and complex area of law for a great deal longer than many of the other law firms out there who only recently started looking into pursuing cases. We have always had a focus on settling for the maximum damages possible which is why our average settlement – which includes a broad range of minor and more severe cases – is just over £6,000 in damages alone. Our understanding is that this is considerably more than many other law firms are prepared settle for, as some look to try to resolve claims quickly and cheaply, which is not the best way forward.

We are a leading team of privacy compensation experts who fight on behalf of thousands of people engaged in No Win, No Fee data breach compensation cases. When it comes to something as sensitive as a DWP data protection breach matter, we are well equipped to help you.
