Under the scheme, any organisation or government agency covered by the Privacy Act 1988 that experiences an eligible data breach must notify affected individuals and the OAIC. The NDB scheme was established in February 2018 to improve consumer protection and drive better security standards for protecting personal information. Similarly, statistics from before January 2022 in this report may differ from statistics published in previous NDB reports. This may affect statistics for the period January to June 2022 published in future reports. Some data breach notifications are being assessed and adjustments may be made to related statistics. Statistics in this report are current as of 30 September 2022. Notifications made under the My Health Records Act 2012 are not included as they are subject to specific notification requirements set out in that Act. Source of breach categories are defined in the glossary at the end of this report. Where more than one source has been identified or is possible, the dominant or most likely source has been selected. The source of any given breach is based on information provided by the reporting entity. Notifications relating to the same incident are counted as a single notification in this report unless otherwise specified.

Where data breaches affect multiple entities, the OAIC may receive multiple notifications relating to the same incident. Percentages in charts may not total 100% due to rounding. Statistical comparisons are to the period 1 July to 31 December 2021 unless otherwise indicated. This report captures notifications made under the NDB scheme from 1 January to 30 June 2022. The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) periodically publishes statistical information about notifications received under the Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme to help entities and the public understand privacy risks identified through the scheme.
