During a preventive review, Doro AB discovered that a limited number of files containing unencrypted user information were stored in a way that potentially made them accessible to unauthorized third party. As soon as this was discovered, Doro took immediate measures to prevent further external access to the user information. Doro also reported the incident to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (Integritetskyddsmyndigheten, IMY). An investigation has been initiated and so far confirms that a limited amount of information was available, but currently there are no indications that any user information has been accessed by unauthorized third party.
