Authority Profits from Enforcement Fines

The provision allocates 50% of all criminal fines directly to the Authority's operational fund, creating a direct financial incentive for the agency to maximize prosecutions and penalties. Combined with the Authority's police and prosecution powers granted in 8, this violates separation of powers principles—the same entity investigates, prosecutes, and profits from convictions. For businesses, this creates unpredictable enforcement risk where regulatory decisions may be driven by revenue targets rather than genuine cybersecurity threats, undermining investor confidence in fair, proportionate treatment.
