Turkey fines Amazon’s Twitch 2 million lira for data breach

Turkey’s Personal Data Protection Board (KVKK) has fined Amazon.com’s gaming platform Twitch 2 million lira ($58,000) over 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, addressing the issue only afterward.

It also said risk and threat assessments had been insufficient.
