22 Sep 2026 OTC Link LLCOTC Link: 575,000 USD – security policies never completed despite examination findings €501,614
From 2016 to 2025, the operator of the OTC Link ATS trading system lacked complete policies on systems security, access control and vulnerability management as required under Regulation SCI. Although the examiners of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) had criticised the gaps in several examinations, drafts remained unfinished; the SEC issued a censure and imposed 575,000 USD.
Track supervisory examination findings with a deadline and a responsible person – points that remain open repeatedly become expensive.

28 Jul 2026 Luk Fook Securities (HK) LimitedLuk Fook Securities: HKD 2.1m fine for weak cybersecurity ahead of ransomware attack €235,595
Luk Fook Securities (HK) was publicly reprimanded and fined 2,100,000 HKD because inadequate cybersecurity controls might have contributed to a ransomware attack on 19 September 2022 hitting numerous core servers and to full recovery taking until 7 October 2022; during that time clients could not trade via the app or internet platform. Findings included missing firewall protection, outdated operating systems and antivirus software, weak access and password controls with credentials stored unencrypted, insufficient controls over remote access and external devices, inadequate data backup and a last security training session in 2018.
Basic cyber hygiene – patching, access and password controls, backups and regular staff training – is a regulatory obligation for financial firms.

9 Feb 2026 FIIG Securities LimitedFIIG Securities: 2.5 million AUD for inadequate cyber security ahead of data theft €1.48m
The Federal Court of Australia, on application by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC, Australia's corporate, markets and financial services regulator), imposed a penalty of 2.5 million AUD on the fixed-income specialist because between March 2019 and June 2023 it lacked adequate cyber security measures, resources and risk management systems – among other things, there was no multi-factor authentication for remote access, no regular penetration testing and no mandatory security awareness training. In a 2023 attack around 385 GB of confidential data were stolen and some 18,000 clients were notified; the court also ordered a compliance programme with an independent expert.
For licensed financial services firms, cyber security is part of their licence obligations: basic measures such as MFA, patching, monitoring, training and a tested incident response plan must be funded and actually implemented.

11 Dec 2025 Singapore Telecommunications Limited (Singtel)IMDA: SGD 1m against Singtel after hours-long fixed-line voice outage €660,197
On 8 October 2024 Singtel's fixed-line voice service failed for more than four hours for around 500,000 residential and corporate users; customer service lines of government agencies, healthcare organisations and banks as well as emergency call services were also affected. The cause was that the virtualised firewalls of the voice system and of a monitoring system shared the same hardware, so that an overload of the insufficiently filtered monitoring system also disrupted the voice system and the automatic failover did not work cleanly; according to the investigation, there was no cyber-attack. The Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA, Singapore's telecoms and media regulator) imposed a penalty of SGD 1 million under the Telecommunications Act because the incident had been within Singtel's control to prevent.
Critical services need separated components and reliably tested failover mechanisms – shared hardware can turn a fault in an ancillary system into an outage of the core service.

The RDI imposed 1,518,750 EUR; Odido has since renewed the system.

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.

23 May 2025 S-Pankki OyjS-Pankki: EUR 7.67m and public warning over faulty banking software €7.67m
The Finanssivalvonta (FIN-FSA, Finnish Financial Supervisory Authority) imposed a joint penalty payment of 7,670,000 EUR on S-Pankki Oyj for failings in operational risk management and additionally issued a public warning. A programming error that was live in a bank system from 20 April to 5 August 2022 had not been adequately tested beforehand; the bank lacked a sufficiently secure system and effective incident management and was insufficiently prepared for outsourcing risks. The warning concerns the failure to apply the required strong customer authentication and payments executed without the payers' consent from 6 May to 5 August 2022; earlier penalty payments imposed on the bank by the supervisor (2019 and 2021) increased the amount. The decision is not final.
Changes to authentication and payment processing need documented testing before going live – even when a service provider develops the software.

21 May 2025 GoDaddy Inc.FTC: GoDaddy must set up an information security programme after hosting security gaps Order
According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC, the US consumer protection authority), the web host did not use multi-factor authentication for its hosting services, monitored security threats inadequately and did not secure connections to customer data, yet advertised “award-winning security”. The final order prohibits false statements about security and requires a comprehensive information security programme and regular reviews by independent assessors.
Be able to prove basics such as MFA and threat monitoring before advertising security – otherwise the advertising promise itself becomes the violation.

20 Mar 2025 The London Metal Exchange (LME)London Metal Exchange: 9.2 million GBP – controls and escalation failed in nickel turmoil €11m
When the nickel price rose to over 100,000 USD within just over an hour on 8 March 2022, only junior staff were on duty during Asian trading hours, and they had not been trained to recognise a disorderly market; they did not escalate and even switched off price bands. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) imposed a fine on the recognised investment exchange for the first time: 9.2 million GBP after a 30% discount.
Critical infrastructure needs trained staff around the clock and clear escalation paths – including at night and at off-peak times.
Escalation of unusual market conditions; training of shift staff
Missing or inadequate training played a role in the decision.
