De-identified information on reported breaches for the years 2010-2019

Ryan made this Official Information request to Privacy Commissioner

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Ryan to read a recent response and update the status.

From: Ryan

Dear Privacy Commissioner,

I would like to request a de-identified list of breaches reported to the privacy office for each year since 2010 (or earlier if practicable), and including the current year to date, along with:

- the order of the number of affected parties (ie. 100s, ~10k, ~1m)
- whether these breaches contained personal (physical address, phone number, etc.) and/or financial (cards, bank details, etc.) and/or health information
- whether these breaches were reported to those effected by a) the breached organisation and/or b) the privacy office

These may be aggregated where reasonable to do so, for example:

2019:

- 10x breaches with ~10k people impacted, containing personal and financial information
- 2x breaches with ~100k people impacted, containing personal and health information

Yours faithfully,

Ryan
