Home Affairs joins Defence to restrict TikTok on work phones
Share
Employees at the Department of Home Affairs have been restricted from using the Chinese-owned social media app TikTok on their work phones, following a similar move at the Defence Department.
A security risk assessment by the Department of Home Affairs last January concluded that TikTok should not be used on department-issued corporate mobile phones.
The Department of Home Affairs reviewed use of TikTok on work phones in 2020.

As we’re all painfully aware, public health issues dominated 2020 and with the country’s attention focused on COVID-19 testing, status, transmission and care, HIPAA went mainstream. Health information became critical not only for health care providers, but for all manner of businesses, employers, property owners, and the national media. HIPAA – or more often than not “HIPPA” – was frequently touted in the news and on social media as the reason why COVID-related information could or could not be shared. As we head into 2021 with the pandemic raging on, the vaccination program underway, and a new administration taking over, here is a look at what we expect for “HIPPA” in 2021.
