I have had a data breach! Now what?

You need to notify the OAIC. To do this you just complete an online form. Before doing the form, write down what you did to contain the breach (stop them from taking more), what information you think is stolen, and what you have done to correct it.

The OAIC has a 4-Step process to follow:

1. Contain

2. Assess

3. Notify

4. Review

   
   

Complete this form from the OAIC.

Here is more information the the 4-step process to responding to a data breach.

You will also need to notify the affected individuals. Remember to include the first part of the form when you do. Here are some details on how to notify the affected individuals.
