Subject: RE: [data-protection] Intriguing way to report a databreach? Put a data breach reporting address in the document's metadata?
That sounds like a good idea. What is the way to contact? Do you have a designated contact point? I have trawled a number of sites looking for where to report a data breach, but so far I have not seen any. I would guess that the best alternative is to report it to the contact centre, but is that the right address?
For example, you could get a breach that involves a specific weblink. If you send the link through the link, but a number of people clicking that link may confuse the issue. While this is not insurmountable, it would have an effect on an investigation. At the same time, sending to a contact centre may mean more people become aware of it than need to know.
I would be interested to know how others approach the "out of hours" breach reporting and whether such things can wait until the next business day.

When I implemented security incident management procedure at my organisation this is the one thing that crossed my mind. Our Comms Team has already got a rota for 24hr contact should they be needed by our CEX or Snr Mgr for any reason, so I tapped into this that if an incident happens outside of working hours they are to call the 24hr "hotline" so to speak.
