Privacy Awareness Week PAW2021 runs 3-6 May

Do you know if you're oversharing?

This Privacy Awareness Week, take steps to make privacy a priority at work and home, it’s easier and faster than you think. 

As more of our day-to-day lives take place online, for work, study, and socialising, we may share more than we intend to. Our personal information such as our contact details, financial or even sensitive information about our health or beliefs can be revealed online in ways we may not expect.

Online tracking, sophisticated phishing scams and data breaches are just some of the issues that can have a serious impact on our privacy. In fact, Australians see identity theft and fraud, and data breaches and security, as the biggest privacy risks we face today.
