I am writing to bring to your attention a serious matter regarding an incident of breach of confidentiality by one of our fellow employees, [Employee's Name]. This incident has raised concerns within the organization, and it necessitates immediate action to address the matter appropriately. On [Date], it came to my attention that [Employee's Name] had divulged confidential information to an unauthorized third party without the requisite authorization or a legitimate need-to-know basis. This action directly violates our company policies regarding the protection and safeguarding of sensitive and confidential information. As an organization, we place immense importance on maintaining strict confidentiality, both for the privacy and security of our clients, employees, and business operations.
