7. Breach Management
7.1 Identification and Classification
CAP have put in place procedures that will allow any staff member to report any information/data security breach.
▪ We ensure that all staff are aware to whom they should report such a breach.
▪ Having such a procedure in place will allow for early recognition of the breach so that it can be dealt with in the most appropriate manner.
▪ Details of the breach will be recorded accurately according to procedure, including the date and time the breach occurred, the date and time it was detected, who/what reported the breach, description of the breach, details of any ICT systems involved, corroborating material such as error messages, log files, etc.
▪ In this respect, staff are made fully aware as to what constitutes a breach. In respect of this policy a breach maybe defined as the unintentional release of customer confidential or personal information/data to unauthorised persons, either through the accidental disclosure, loss or theft of the information/data.
7.2 Containment and Recovery
Containment involves limiting the scope and impact of the breach of data/information. If a breach occurs, CAP will:
▪ Decide on who would take the lead in investigating the breach and ensure that the appropriate resources are made available for the investigation.
▪ Establish who in the affected organisation/s need to be made aware of the breach and inform them of what they are expected to do to assist in the containment exercise.
▪ Establish whether there is anything that can be done to recover losses and limit the damage the breach can cause.
7.3 Risk Assessment
In assessing the risk arising from any security breach, CAP will consider what would be the potential adverse consequences for individuals, i.e. how likely it is that adverse consequences will materialise and, in the event of materialising, how serious or substantial are they likely to be. In assessing the risk, the following points will be considered:
▪ What type of Information/data is involved?
▪ How sensitive is the information/data?
▪ Are there any security mechanism’s in place (e.g. password, protected, encryption)?
▪ What could the information/data tell a third party about the individual/s?
▪ How many individuals are affected by the breach?
7.4 Notification of Breaches
All information/data breaches are reported to CAP’s Information Security Manager. The ISM will complete a Security Incident Report.
Where it is deemed the breach is likely to result in a high risk to individual’s rights and freedoms, CAP will notify the Information Commissioners Office within 72 hours.
Where it is deemed the breach is likely to result in a high risk to individual’s rights and freedoms, CAP will notify the affected customer/s within 96 hours. This will include a copy of the completed security incident report if requested by the affected individuals.
CAP document all breaches of information security, even if they don’t all need to be reported.
7.5 Evaluation and Response
After any information/data security breach, a thorough internal review of the incident will occur. The purpose of this review is to ensure that the steps taken during the incident were appropriate and to identify areas that may need to be improved.
Any recommended changes to policies and/or procedures should be documented and implemented as soon as possible thereafter.
