Since the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation went into full effect, European data protection authorities have received more than 160,900 data breach reports, according to the law firm DLA Piper.
From when GDPR went into full effect on May 25, 2018, until Friday, EU data protection authorities also imposed €114 million ($126 million) in fines under the privacy regulation for a wide variety of infringements, not all involving data breaches.
