South Africa gets online system for reporting data breaches
“South Africa’s Information Regulator has launched an online platform for public and private entities to report security compromises. It has instructed all organisations to report any compromises through the system. The system is accessible through the Information Regulator’s eServices portal, and the Information Regulator will no longer accept reports via email.”
Well, you can be very sure that many e-mail addresses don't get answered by SA Gov, as the mailboxes are full. I've tried reporting something before, so I know.
The link to the portal is in the linked article below. There is a warning too about the need for timeous reporting, and I'm sure that will also count for the numerous SA government departments that have been breached in the last year!
