Alberta's information and privacy commissioner is now investigating the fire and explosion at the Shaw Court building in downtown Calgary on July 11.

The fire affected a number of computer systems holding Albertans' personal, health and financial information.

Jill Clayton wants to ensure safeguards were in place to protect the integrity of personal and health information.

“There are valuable lessons to be learned from an incident like this," she said in a release. "We want to make sure that businesses, public bodies and health custodians are able to maintain access to critical information systems in a disaster situation in a way that maintains privacy.”

Her investigation will also examine the measures that were taken to protect the information while restoring access to services.

The initial scope of the investigation will include Service Alberta, Alberta Health, Alberta Health Services and ATB Financial.

Clayton says the results of the investigation will be published and her office will develop guidlines to help organizations in planning for system failures.
