kooksõlastusteade

Kooksõlastusteade is an Estonian term that translates to "unauthorized access notice" or "notice of unauthorized access." It refers to a communication that informs individuals or organizations that their data or systems have been accessed without permission. This type of notice is typically issued by a company or entity that has experienced a security breach.

The purpose of a kooksõlastusteade is to alert those potentially affected by the breach. It often includes details about the nature of the unauthorized access, what kind of information might have been compromised, and the steps being taken to address the situation. Such notices are crucial for transparency and for allowing individuals to take protective measures if their personal information has been exposed.

In Estonia, similar to many other jurisdictions, there are legal and regulatory requirements for reporting and notifying individuals about data breaches. A kooksõlastusteade serves as a formal mechanism to fulfill these obligations. It is a key component of incident response and cybersecurity best practices, aiming to mitigate the potential harm caused by unauthorized data access. The content and timing of such notices can vary depending on the severity of the breach and the specific regulations applicable.
