The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner is reducing the frequency of its statistical reporting on data breaches from every three months to six months, despite a steady stream of notifications in its latest report.

The sixth notifiable data breaches (NDB) scheme report [pdf], released late on Tuesday, reveals 245 notifications were received by the privacy and freedom of information authority between April and June 2019.
The figure is slightly higher than the 215 breaches reported in the three months to April 2019, but less than the record number of breaches received to date.

Of the cyber incidents, the overwhelming majority (79 percent) were “linked to compromised credentials” obtained through phishing, brute-force attacks or unknown methods.
