OVIC updates security incident notification scheme details
The Office of the Victorian Information Commissioner (OVIC) has released updated information on the information security incident notification scheme.
The scheme’s aim is to centrally coordinate notification of information security incidents within Victorian Government.
It requires agencies or bodies to “notify OVIC of incidents that compromise the confidentiality, integrity or availability of public sector information with a ‘limited’ business impact or higher on government operations, organisations or individuals”.
According to OVIC, incident notification helps with “developing a comprehensive security risk profile of the Victorian Government which can be used for trend analysis and understanding of the threat environment”.
De-identified outcomes of analyses are shared with Victorian Government agencies and bodies, which help them perform their own risk assessments.
Full details are available on the OVIC website.
