How each kind of coverage works, and what the readiness score counts: Compliance frameworks.

What a scan checks

Each scan of a product checks these 5 requirements against what the scan found, including the product's software inventory (SBOM).

RequirementWhat Safeguard checksDecided by
VC-PRIV-SEC Security SafeguardsPublic authorities must implement reasonable safeguards to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse; verifiable integrity hashes on the software handling that information evidence such safeguards (Privacy Act 2003, security-safeguards provisions)Scan
VC-PRIV-ACC Accuracy and CorrectionPersonal information held must be accurate and individuals may demand corrections, which presumes the processing software is itself completely identified by name and version (Privacy Act 2003, correction-rights provisions)Scan
VC-PRIV-DISC Use and Disclosure LimitsPersonal information may be used or disclosed only for purposes directly related to its collection, so every third-party component involved in processing must have a named, accountable supplier (Privacy Act 2003, use-and-disclosure provisions)Scan
VC-PRIV-RET Retention and DisposalPersonal information may be retained only as long as necessary and must be disposed of securely, which requires knowing exactly which software components, at which versions, hold the data (Privacy Act 2003, retention-and-disposal provisions)Scan
VC-PRIV-COMM Commissioner OversightThe Privacy Commissioner monitors public authorities' compliance, which presupposes documented, uniquely identified and timestamped records of the processing environment available for review (Privacy Act 2003, Privacy Commissioner functions)Scan
