Turkey fines Amazon with 2 million lira for data breach!

Turkey's Personal Data Protection Board (KVKK) has fined Amazon.com, launching new gaming platform Twitch, 2 million liras ($58,000) for a data breach, the official Anadolu Agency reported on Saturday.

KVKK launched an investigation after a 125 GB data leak. It found that Twitch had failed to take adequate security measures beforehand, only addressing the issue afterwards.

 He also said risk and threat assessments had been inadequate.

The breach affected 35,274 individuals in Turkey.

KVKK imposed a fine of 1.75 million lira for insufficient security and 250,000 lira for not reporting the violation.
