Medibank plans to aid their customers moving forward by providing some resources free of charge, those include:
• Financial support for customers who are in a uniquely vulnerable position because of this crime.
• Free identity monitoring services for customers who have had their primary ID compromised
• Reimbursement of fees for re-issue of identity documents that have been fully compromised in this crime.
• Specialist identity protection advice and resources from IDCARE.

The Australian government has also responded to the recent uptick in Australian businesses being targeted by threat actors. A new Privacy Legislation Amendment Bill has been proposed that will have stricter penalties for businesses that are breached.
