ECB Cyber-bar Podcast EP 9 | The Live-Streamed Hack That Broke Transport | POTRAZ INSPECTION UPDATE

🚨 Critical infrastructure isn't safe from cybercrime—and the latest global events prove it. In this episode, we breakdown the recent sentencing of Owen Flowers and Thalha Jubair, who were both handed 5.5-year prison sentences for launching a massive cyber-attack on Transport for London (TfL). The scary part? They live-streamed parts of the breach and proved that cybercriminals are looking far beyond banks and financial institutions. Then, we bring the threat home to Zimbabwe. With POTRAZ issuing Regulatory Notice 2 of 2026, mandatory compliance inspections and assessments under the Cyber and Data Protection Act [Chapter 12:07] start on 1 September 2026. We discuss what this means for local businesses, data controllers, and why appointing a certified Data Protection Officer (DPO) isn't just optional anymore—it’s an urgent priority. 💡 TAKE ACTION ON DATA PROTECTION: Avoid severe penalties and level 11 fines by getting compliant before 1 September 2026.
