Duration: 14 minutes Overview: Explore how high-risk data often hides inside everyday spreadsheets, reports and dashboards, and how it can be accidentally exposed through hidden fields and interactive features like drilldowns. You’ll learn about the types of data that carry higher risk, such as personal identifiers, health information, and free-text notes, and uses a real-world example to show how a simple dashboard link can unintentionally reveal sensitive client details. Why is this course important? Most reported data breaches in Australia are not caused by hackers or technical failures - they come from normal staff doing ordinary work under time pressure. A hidden column, a shared link, a quick screen share, or a misunderstood permission can expose personal information without anyone realising. These mistakes are preventable. By understanding how information flows through modern systems and recognising the common traps, you can protect clients, colleagues, and your organisation from unnecessary risk. Safe data handling supports trust, reduces incidents and keeps daily work running smoothly. Suitable for: Employees who creates, uses or shares information as part of their work. It applies to coordinators, administrators, HR staff, team leaders, contractors, service workers, educators, project staff and anyone else who handles reports, dashboards, forms or shared documents. You don’t need technical skills - just a willingness to learn simple, practical habits that reduce accidental data exposure. Organisations across all industries in Australia can benefit from staff who understand how to keep information safe in everyday tasks.
