Australia's mandatory data breach notification scheme has now been in place for a few years, and there are certain takeaways we have seen on notifications.
Marc Coleman from Protiviti Australia and Baker McKenzie’s Anne Petterd discuss data breaches in the context of what has been learnt from the mandatory data breach notification scheme, including the impact on notifications, what data breach practices have organisations implemented, and how have they assessed and applied the serious harm test.
This is episode 2 of a 3-part series on privacy. Protiviti Australia teamed up with law firm Baker McKenzie (www.bakermckenzie.com/en) for Privacy Awareness Week, an initiative of the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (www.oaic.gov.au/), which highlights the importance of protecting personal information and helps organisations navigate the privacy landscape.
