Frequently Asked Questions

If you are considering purchasing a Notifiable Data Breach Package, here’s what you need to know:

As an APP entity (which includes all medical and health businesses) you must notify the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) and any affected individuals where an eligible data breach is likely to result in serious harm and undertake full assessments of suspected data breaches.

An eligible data breach occurs where there has been unauthorised access, disclosure or loss of personal information where the loss is likely to result in serious harm. Sometimes this may be obvious, however oftentimes it is not.

• A Manual

•  A Breach Assessment Process; and

•  A Patient Notification Letter
