The ODPA also noted that 517 people were affected by 'high-risk' data breaches.
The ODPA mentioned a recent case where police informed a retail outlet that a staff member showed CCTV footage to a member of the public. The ODPA stated that this highlights the importance of audit trails for personal data misuse and ensuring that staff members only have access to the personal data required to perform their duties.
