A senior Australian official transferred sensitive data to a law firm with a history of cyberattacks, sparking privacy and security concerns.
Senior public servant Jaala Hinchcliffe is facing scrutiny for transferring 170GB of sensitive parliamentary data—potentially up to two million emails—to law firm HWL Ebsworth, despite cybersecurity warnings of "extreme" risk due to the firm’s prior 2023 ransomware attack by a Russian group.
Hinchcliffe, who relied on the firm’s assurances of improved security and did not consult the Senate Clerk on parliamentary privilege, has been directed by Parliament’s presiding officers to retrieve the data.
Concerns have been raised by federal politicians over potential breaches of privilege, national security, and public service conduct, prompting calls for an investigation and stronger oversight protocols.
