Supreme Court Rules On Australian Style vs auDA
July 23, No Comments - Author: Simon JohnsonThe Surpreme Court of Victoria – Court of Appeal has heard the case Australian Style Pty Ltd vs .au Domain Administration (auDA).
Last night I received this document. It was just past midnight and made for some interesting bedtime reading (yes I should get a life). For those following the case, 36 pages and 104 paragraphs later, I can tell you “For all the reasons set out in this judgment, the appeal must be dismissed.”
What is very interesting is how it details the security breaches. Paragraphs 17 and 18 include:
“the Australian Federal Police had notified auDA of another, and undoubted, security breach in which the database of Australian Style, including domain name passwords and credit card details of its registrants, had been offered for sale on the internet.
It also covers another security breach in 2009 with a detailed discussion on what transpired at the time. There is a lot of information here to digest.
