UK’s privacy watchdog has issued a “notice of intent” that it plans to fine British Airways 184 million ($230 million) for violating the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation. BA suffered a September 2018 data breach that rerouted customers to a fraudulent site designed to steal their payment card data. The regulator’s fine is being levied not because the airline suffered a breach, but because of what the ICO says was the organization’s poor security posture at the time of the breach. BA and its parent company, International Airlines Group, say they plan to appeal the proposed fine.”]
