17 Oct 2025 Odido Netherlands B.V.Netherlands: 1.52 million EUR against Odido – interception system without security plan and staff screening NetherlandsCritical infrastructure €1.52m

In inspections in 2021/22, the RDI (Rijksinspectie Digitale Infrastructuur, the Dutch Authority for Digital Infrastructure) found that the mobile operator had no mandatory security plan for its system for lawful interception of telecommunications, that employees with access had not been adequately screened (missing job descriptions, confidentiality declarations, certificates of conduct), that unauthorised persons had access to interception data and that suppliers could access the system digitally. The RDI imposed 1,518,750 EUR; Odido has since renewed the system.

What organisations can take from it

Treat the security plan, staff screening and strictly limited supplier access for highly sensitive systems as the core of the obligation, not a formality.

Relevance to training and awareness

Access rights, staff screening and supplier access for sensitive systems

3 Jul 2025 Telenor Norge ASTelenor Norge: 50 million NOK after four disruptions to emergency numbers in autumn 2024 NorwayCritical infrastructure €4.21m

The Nasjonal kommunikasjonsmyndighet (Nkom, Norwegian Communications Authority) imposed an administrative penalty (overtredelsesgebyr) of 50,000,000 NOK on Telenor Norge because, on four occasions in autumn 2024 (29 August, 16 September, 17/18 October, 13 November), emergency calls over its network failed entirely or intermittently or were misrouted. The inspection found 22 breaches of ekomloven (Electronic Communications Act), sikkerhetsloven (National Security Act) and several regulations, including inadequate risk assessments, planned work not carried out securely, insufficient redundancy, inadequate auditing of a subcontractor and late notification of the authority. In its final decision Nkom maintained the amount announced in February 2025; the deadline for an administrative appeal ran until 8 September 2025.

What organisations can take from it

Operators that carry emergency call services must safeguard planned network changes with a risk analysis and working redundancy, audit their suppliers and report disruptions on time.

Relevance to training and awareness

Planned work on critical networks: risk analysis, a working fallback and notifying the regulator within 30 minutes

21 May 2024 a Dutch telecommunications providerNetherlands: 2.25 million EUR against a telecommunications provider over inadequately secured interception system NetherlandsCritical infrastructureanonymised €2.25m

According to the Dutch Authority for Digital Infrastructure (RDI), a Dutch telecommunications provider did not take the necessary measures from October 2021 to December 2022 to protect data from lawful interception of telecommunications against unauthorised persons: the security plan was inadequate, staff with access had not been sufficiently screened (missing job descriptions, confidentiality declarations, certificates of conduct), and logical and physical access controls were deficient. No actual unauthorised access was found; the fine amounts to 2.25 million EUR.

What organisations can take from it

Treat interfaces for access by authorities as high-risk systems; document access controls and staff screening completely.
