A HSE employee, Eamon McShane, lost €1,400 due to a cyber attack on his work devices. This incident occurred four years ago, leading McShane to challenge the Data Protection Commission's (DPC) refusal to investigate an alleged breach of his personal information stored on his work phone. Consequently, workers have since been warned that they are responsible for storing personal data on their work devices 'at their own risk', emphasizing the need for caution with sensitive information.
