IT Services for Financial Advisors | P1 Technology

Reliable IT Support for Financial Advisors

Protecting you. Protecting your clients.

Financial services have become a primary target for cybercriminals due to the attraction of real money and ongoing transactions. 

Businesses in Australia (financial services, in particular) that store client data are now required to take steps to protect their system and data from cyber threats.

Your financial business must be compliant with ASIC and AFS requirements.

Data breach regulations include:

1) The Privacy Act 1988: This legislation regulates how organizations handle personal information, including sensitive information such as financial and health data. Organizations must comply with the Privacy Act when collecting, using, and disclosing personal information.

2) The Notifiable Data Breaches scheme: This scheme requires organizations to notify individuals whose personal information is involved in a data breach that is likely to result in serious harm. Organizations must also notify the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner and take steps to contain and reduce the risk of harm.

3) The Security of Critical Infrastructure Act 2018 where a business must alert the Australian Cyber Security Centre of a data breach within 12 hours of becoming aware.

This means you have a minimum level of cyber security measures you need to implement – when, and if, a data breach does occur it must be reported in a timely manner.

With APRA committed to improving cyber-resilience across the financial services industry, it’s never been more important to have a reliable, Australian-based IT partner to support your business.
