News of our Parasol data breach claim published in Computer Weekly

Computer Weekly published an article reporting on the Parasol umbrella company data breach in which cybercriminals accessed the personal information of contractors and employees.

On behalf of the Firm, Kingsley Hayes, Head of Data Breach, commented:

“The solicitors for Optionis Group have issued a strong blanket denial of responsibility for the cyber-attack and subsequent data breach. We are preparing a “letter of claim” on behalf of those affected by the data breach and if the claim is not resolved, we will make a full submission to the court.”

“On behalf of our clients, we maintain that the exposure of their data, both personal and sensitive, has caused significant issues and distress.”

Kingsley’s comments were published in Computer Weekly, 12 May 2022, and can be found here. This article was also republished in TechOnNews.
