REMINDER – Camera Privacy Attacks Happen
Covert cameras, placed in publicly used spaces, where individuals should expect to have privacy are sadly used by voyeurs. Don’t be complacent in any public restroom/toilet facilities. These pose serious safeguarding and personal security concerns. The imagery collated may be used by the voyeur personally, or may be shared, sold or posted widely.
Serious reputational damage can be experienced by the organisation where these devices are found. Legal liability to provide a safe and private environment may be pursued by victims. If your organisation does not have a risk assessment in place for this kind of privacy compromising attack, this is negligent.
The article below highlights just one example of a hidden camera attack that was discovered…how many are not?
