Government warned months before Medicare data breach
Original: Government warned months ahead of Medicare data breach
Reports say the Australian government was warned months in advance about vulnerabilities before the Medicare data breach, raising questions about whether the breach could have been prevented. The revelation has prompted criticism of the government's handling of cyber security warnings and renewed calls for stronger protection of citizens' sensitive health and personal data held by government agencies.
Why now: New reporting that warnings were ignored before a major breach of sensitive Medicare data is fueling public concern and political accountability questions.
