A former Computacenter manager alleges he was unlawfully terminated after reporting that a supervised employee repeatedly brought his girlfriend into Deutsche Bank’s New York server rooms without authorization and allowed her to use his work account on the bank’s network. The lawsuit claims CCTV confirmed the unauthorized access between March and June 2023, accuses Deutsche Bank’s security of protocol failures, and asserts the SEC was not notified; it seeks over $20 million in damages. Both Deutsche Bank and Computacenter declined to comment.
