Meta

In 2019, Meta faced a password storage lapse resulting in hundreds of millions of Facebook, Facebook Lite, and Instagram passwords being stored unprotected in plaintext on internal platforms. This lapse in data protection led to a substantial fine of €91 million by the Irish Data Protection Commission for violating the EU's General Data Protection Regulation. The exposure of such sensitive data posed a significant risk of abuse and unauthorized access to users' social media accounts, undermining user privacy and security.
