Recently @Optus informed the Australian public of a major cyber-attack.
Recently @Optus informed the Australian public of a major cyber-attack.
Optus is conducting a forensic analysis to understand the exact number of customers affected - and the type of information that has been compromised in each case.
Behind the scenes the @NSWCustomer, @TransportforNSW, Cyber Security NSW, ID Support and Registry of Births Death and Marriages - are working with Optus to make the process of re-issuing of NSW identity documents as seamless as possible.
Customers who are notified by Optus that both their Driver Licence number and their Driver Licence card number have been compromised are strongly advised to apply for a replacement licence ➡️ service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/re…
Customers should contact Optus via the My Optus App or by calling 133 937 if they require further assistance or advice regarding the status of their case.
For people living in NSW, who require assistance in replacing their Driver Licence or Birth Certificate - we have established ID Support NSW. If you need assistance, phone 1800 001 040 (Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm).
I will keep you updated as this matter evolves 🙏
