Shadow Home Affairs and Cyber Security Minister James Paterson has called for transparency following a data breach affecting New South Wales pubs and clubs.His comments come following concerns the personal information of more than a million in New South Wales had been released in a data breach.
“It looks like a variation of a ransomware attack, it’s not an external third party but apparently a party that was involved in dealing with this data in a commercial sense in a commercial dispute,” Mr Paterson told Sky News Australia. “The effect of it for affected customers is the same, your data is potentially going to be exposed on the internet.
“I think it’s very important that the service provider here in Australia is very transparent about what has happened, I see a statement that they put out this morning which is frankly very defensive and didn’t provide much information at all.“Some transparency is required here so customers are informed and it’s critical that the federal government get involved.”
