Definition

A Security Breach occurs where a stated organisational policy or legal requirement regarding Information Security has been violated. However, every incident which suggests that the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the information has been compromised can be considered a security incident.

Every security breach will always be initiated by a security incident which, only if confirmed, may become a breach.
