Google is on the agenda again with a data security case. The company, which was sentenced to 350 million dollars in compensation as a result of the lawsuit filed by its investors, seems to have more trouble in this regard. The reason for the lawsuit was that company managers did not want to cause any legal investigation by hiding some personal data breaches from the public. However, this situation was not welcomed by some investors and the incident was taken to court.
It was revealed that the data security breach in question, which Google management was dealing with, occurred on the company’s closed social media platform, Google+. According to the information received, private information of more than 500 thousand users, such as name, date of birth, e-mail and address, was stolen from this platform between 2015 and 2018.
However, Google denied these claims and claimed that they did not cause any data breach and that there was no evidence of this. Jose Castaneda, the company’s press spokesman, stated that they continue to work against any software problems that may arise regarding personal data and that they will take all necessary measures for data security. Castaneda added that he was pleased with the outcome of the case.
According to the decision of the San Francisco Federal Court, investors who purchased Google shares between April 23, 2018 and April 30, 2019 will receive a portion of the $350 million compensation. It was announced that these investors will be informed of the situation soon.
