Description of security incident resolution processes

A security incident - a situation in which the security of personal data has been compromised or where the rules have been violated. A security incident results from a failure or non-compliance with the security measures or a breach of the security policy.

For example, a security incident may be represented by the following events: a theft, robbery, burglary, attack, unauthorised access to information or data, unauthorised use of information, unauthorised access to a building or system, data deletion, infrastructure or connection failure, a server, database, or application failure, hacker attack, data system intrusion, virus attack, ransomware attack, natural disaster, website forgery (spoofing).

In a security incident, data or information may be compromised, lost, stolen, misused or altered.

A mere unsuccessful attempt to steal or otherwise invalidate information may also be considered a security incident.

The responsible persons in charge of resolving incidents, detection of any infringements and risk assessment are: Ing. Jan Rataj (Company Executive)

If the Provider finds that a security incident has occurred, he shall immediately investigate whether there has been a breach of personal data security.

If the Provider finds that a personal data security has been breached, it shall assess the risk to the data subjects. The risks are assessed according to the following criteria:

  • Type of the infringement - disclosure will cause a greater risk than a complete loss.
  • Nature, sensitivity and volume of the personal data - the more sensitive the data, the greater the risk to an individual, the combination of personal data is more sensitive than the data item itself.
  • Ease of identification of private individuals - sometimes may be performed directly from the compromised personal data. Encrypted data without an encryption key is unreadable by an unauthorised entity.
  • Severity of consequences for private individuals - in respect of sensitive data, the potential harm to private individuals may be particularly serious; breaches of personal data in respect of vulnerable individuals may pose a higher risk of injury. Long-term effects have a greater impact.
  • Special characteristics of a private individual - e.g. children, people with disabilities or vulnerable people.
  • Number of private individuals concerned - the larger the number of private individuals involved, the greater the impact the infringement may have.
  • Special characteristics of the data Provider - there are differences in sensitivity of the processed personal data.

By assessing the risks, the data Provider may reach the following conclusions:

  1. It is unlikely that the given breach would result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of private individuals.
  2. It is likely that the breach would result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of private individuals.
  3. It is likely that the breach would result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of private individuals. A higher risk will arise if the protection of a special category of personal data (sensitive data) is breached.

The risk assessment according to (a) does not result in any reporting, i.e. notification obligation.

The risk assessment pursuant to (b) will result in a notification obligation on the part of the Provider in respect of a supervisory authority.

The evaluation pursuant to (c) will result in a notification obligation on the part of the Provider in respect of the supervisory authority as well as the data subject.

The Provider is only required to report to the supervisory authority if the breach is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of private individuals.

The purpose of the reporting obligation is to limit any damage caused to private individuals. A breach of personal data protection must be reported to a supervisory authority no later than 72 hours through any of the following:

Address of the Office for Personal Data Protection, Pplk. Sochora 27, 170 00 Prague 7
E-mail posta@uoou.cz
Data box ID: qkbaa2n

If it is not possible to provide the information simultaneously, it may be provided gradually without undue delay.

If the infringements concern the same type of personal data, the security of which has been breached in the same manner within a relatively short time, it is possible to make a bulk notification.

The notification shall provide the supervisory authority with at least the following information:

  1. a description of the nature of the infringement of personal data security, including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of the data subjects concerned (e.g. children, people with disabilities, employees, vulnerable groups, etc.) and the categories and approximate number of personal data records concerned (e.g. medical data, school records, social care information, financial data, bank account numbers, passport numbers, etc).
  2. the name and contact details of the data protection officer or other contact point which may provide further information;
  3. a description of the likely consequences of the infringement of the personal data security;
  4. a description of the measures that the Provider adopted or proposed to be adopted in order to address the breach of personal data security, including any measures to mitigate possible adverse effects.

The Provider is required to notify a private individual only if the breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of this private individual, i.e. if the breach may result in a material or non-material damage to the private individual concerned (discrimination, identity theft, fraud, financial loss, damage to reputation, etc.).

The Provider shall notify the personal data subject and the supervisory authority without undue delay.

The notification of the data subject shall provide at least the following information:

  1. a description of the nature of the infringement;
  2. the name and contact details of the data protection officer or other point of contact;
  3. a description of the likely consequences of the breach;
  4. a description of the measures taken or proposed by the Provider to deal with the case, including any measures taken to mitigate any possible adverse effects.

If possible, the Provider may provide private individuals with specific advice on how to protect themselves from any possible adverse consequences of a breach (e.g. a password reset, etc.).

Notification to the data subject stated above is not required if any of the following conditions are met:

  1. the Provider has put in place appropriate technical and organisational protection measures and these measures have been applied to the personal data affected by the personal data infringement. In particular, these are measures that have made this data incomprehensible to anyone who is not authorised to access it, such as encryption.
  2. the Provider has adopted follow-up measures to ensure that the high risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects is no longer likely to occur.
  3. It would require a disproportionate effort. In such a case, the data subjects must be informed in the same effective way by means of a public notice or a similar measure.

If the supervisory authority considers that the breach is likely to result in a high risk, it may require the Provider to report the breach to the data subject concerned, if it has not yet done so. However, it may also decide that one of the conditions set out in the previous paragraph is met.

The Provider shall document all cases of personal data security infringement, stating the facts relating to the given infringement, its effects and the corrective measures taken.

The Provider keeps documentation on all cases, even if there is no obligation to report them to the supervisory authority. The description of an infringement of personal data security shall include:

  • description of the event,
  • causes of the infringement,
  • which personal data have been affected,
  • the effects and consequences of the infringement,
  • corrective actions taken by the Provider,
  • justification of possible non-reporting of the incident i.e. infringement, the reasons for postponement in case of late submission of the notification,
  • proof of notification of personal data subjects,
  • proof that the staff of the Provider have been instructed on how to behave in the event of an infringement of security of personal data.

In a similar manner, the Provider shall record security incidents in respect of which the infringement of security of personal data did not occur immediately, but at the same time it is possible that an infringement of security will occur later on.

Role of the data protection officer - the data protection officer cooperates with the supervisory authority and acts as a contact person for the supervisory authority and the data subjects. The name and contact details of the data protection officer are disclosed by the Provider when reporting an data security incident.

The Provider acquaints its employees with incident resolution processes and instructs them on how to behave in order to prevent a personal data security infringement and how to behave when such occur. This instruction of the employees is carried out at the beginning of the employment relationship, from then on regularly once every 2 years.

Any data security incident is reported by the employees to their manager, who contacts the responsible persons of the Provider. In the event of a breach of personal data security, they contact the data protection officer.

If the Provider uses a supplier and this supplier detects an infringement of security of the personal data it processes on behalf of the Provider, it is obliged to report such to the Provider without undue delay. If the supplier provides services to multiple Providers who have all been affected by the same incident, the supplier is obliged to report the details of such an incident to all Providers.
