    The need for organisations to strengthen data security and promptly respond to suspected breaches is highlighted in the latest Notifiable data breaches report, released today.
  • “As the guardians of Australians’ personal information, organisations must have the security measures required to minimise the risk of a data breach,” Commissioner Falk said.
  • “The longer organisations delay notification, the more the chance of harm increases.”
    The January to June 2023 period saw 409 data breaches reported to the OAIC.
  • - The OAIC has published guidance on securing personal information and data breach preparation and response, as well as advice for individuals on responding to a data breach notification.
