Patterns in this package

AI Agent Action Misuse

Detects agent tool-misuse / high-risk action instructions in AI/agent context: destructive or irreversible action language coupled with a high-impact target or an approval-bypass clause (OWASP LLM06 / Agentic Top 10). The action verb and target must co-occur to suppress IT-runbook false positives.

Queensland Mandatory Notification of Data Breach (MNDB) Statement, Notice or Register Entry

Completed records under the Queensland Mandatory Notification of Data Breach (MNDB) scheme in chapter 3A of the Information Privacy Act 2009 (Qld), as inserted by the Information Privacy and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2023: the s 51 statement to the Information Commissioner, the s 53 notice to affected individuals, s 52 further information, and entries in the s 72 register of eligible data breaches. The scheme has applied to Queensland government agencies since 1 July 2025 and to local government since 1 July 2026. A populated record names the agency and gives the date of the breach, the type of eligible data breach (unauthorised access, unauthorised disclosure or loss, s 47), the kinds of personal information involved, the number of individuals affected or notified, and the containment and mitigation steps. OIC guidance, the Act, published MNDB statistics and blank templates are decoys. Overlaps with au-data-breach-report, which is framed around the Commonwealth Notifiable Data Breaches scheme (Privacy Act 1988 Part IIIC); Commonwealth NDB signals are excluded from this classifier's enforce tiers.

SOCI Mandatory Cyber Security Incident Report or Ransomware Payment Report

Completed regulatory cyber incident reports made to the Australian Signals Directorate: mandatory cyber security incident reports under the Security of Critical Infrastructure Act 2018 (s 30BC critical incidents, 12 hours, written record within 84 hours of an oral report; s 30BD other incidents, 72 hours, written record within 48 hours), content entered in the ASD/ACSC "Report a cyber security incident" form (organisation, ABN, contact number, date and time the incident was identified, whether it is ongoing, incident type, Home Affairs consent), and ransomware payment reports under s 27 of the Cyber Security Act 2024. Distinct from global-security-incident-report and the OT cyber incident report classifiers, which cover internal incident and forensic reports; this one requires the regulatory reporting frame plus populated ASD form fields.

SOCI Act Relevant Information Record (CIRMP, Asset Register, SoNS Obligations)

Documents that are "relevant information" under s 5A of the Security of Critical Infrastructure Act 2018 (Cth): a critical infrastructure risk management program (CIRMP, s 30AC) and the annual CIRMP report (s 30AG: up-to-date statement for a financial year, board or governing body approval, hazards with a significant relevant impact; LIN 23/006 and LIN 26/075 terms), Register of Critical Infrastructure Assets submissions (s 6 interest and control information, s 7 operational information), and Systems of National Significance enhanced cyber security obligation documents (incident response plan s 30CD, cyber security exercise evaluation reports s 30CQ / 30CR, vulnerability assessment report s 30CZ, system information reporting notices s 30DB / 30DC). There is no statutory marking for this material, so the classifier does not anchor on "PROTECTED" or any other label.

Aviation Transport Security Program or Maritime / Ship / Offshore Security Plan

Content of an aviation industry participant's Transport Security Program (TSP, Aviation Transport Security Act 2004 s 16; disclosing TSP content without the participant's consent is an offence under Aviation Transport Security Regulations 2005 reg 2.06) and of maritime security plans, ship security plans and offshore security plans (Maritime Transport and Offshore Facilities Security Regulations 2003 regs 3.12, 4.115 and 5A.105 require them to be protected against unauthorised access, amendment and disclosure). Enforcement needs populated plan structure: named port / company / ship / offshore security officers (PSO, CSO, SSO), 24-hour security contact numbers, restricted and cleared zone or screening point tables, and executed Declarations of Security. Australian law has no "Security Sensitive Information" marking; US TSA Sensitive Security Information (49 CFR 1520) material is an explicit exclusion.

EU NIS2 Cybersecurity Risk-Management Measures

Detects NIS2 Article 21 cybersecurity risk-management measures documentation from essential and important entities — gap assessments, board approval papers, and the policies implementing the Article 21(2)(a)-(j) measures (incident handling, business continuity, supply chain security, cyber hygiene, cryptography, access control, multi-factor authentication). These documents catalogue an entity's security posture and unremediated gaps.

Red Team Assessment

Detects red team assessment reports and red team findings records revealing proven attack paths and security blind spots.
