    “The vulnerability that arose as a result of the breach may have been exploited by an antagonist through a so-called insider attack with the aim of affecting security-sensitive operations in, among other things, the area of ​​electronic communications. Such an impact would, according to PTS, cause damage to Sweden’s security,” the authority writes in its decision.

    Telia tells TT that they plan to appeal the decision on fines.
