A 38-year-old man will appear in court today to face charges in connection with a data breach of “sensitive” NSW court filings a month ago.
The man was arrested on Wednesday after a search warrant was executed on an address in Maroubra in Sydney’s south.
Two laptops were also seized.
He faces multiple charges, including “access/modify restricted data held in computer [and] use carriage service to menace/harass/offend”.
NSW Police said that the charges relate to alleged “unauthorised access of the NSW Department of Community and Justice (DCJ) online registry website” between Wednesday January 29 and Thursday March 20.
Some 8769 “restricted documents” were accessed, police allege.
