One interesting thing here, is they imply that both confidential personal medical information and confidential gov docs might have been compromised via the same phone.

Does EU parliment not have a policy of seperating work and personal devices?

Having a policy and what happens in the real world are most of the time very different things (Understandably, as the line between work and personal time is often blurry).

True but one would hope though that people dealing with national security would follow more than your average employee.

From what I understood, he took his compromised work phone to the hospital, and the concern is that it may have recorded conversations that contained personal medical information.

He didn’t have medical information on the phone.
