Meta, the parent company of Facebook, was fined €91 million by the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) for improperly storing user passwords in plaintext, violating the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
The issue, dating back to 2019, involved Meta failing to encrypt passwords, leaving them vulnerable to unauthorized access.
The DPC found that Meta took several months to report the breach and failed to implement adequate measures swiftly, leading to the hefty fine. This adds to Meta’s ongoing legal challenges regarding data privacy.
